Mark Hoogewerf

Creative strategist & Storyteller

Be your story, live your story, tell your story

Mark Hoogewerf loves stories. To him, the ultimate story is the legend: a time-traveling tale that connects dream and reality. Building living legends, that’s what makes him professionally happy. Kick-ass stories about people and brands that create memories and movement. Mark combines passion with strategy and idealism with results. Our “visiologist” helps you write – and authentically present – the history of your future.

Driven, progressive, enterprising people usually get along well with Mark. Professionals or leaders from SMEs, for example. Or spirited educators. His experience in a high-tech multinational makes him well versed in the corporate world, too.

Despite – or because of – 25 years of expertise in communication, marketing and management, he is still learning every day. Notorious yes-but sayers, posers or “you are right but I am more right because I have an expensive title” types have a hard time with Mark.

Mark’s LinkedIn Profile

They call him an inspiration junkie

“I’m inspired by the people I work with. By you, dear reader, because you deserve to be the hero of your story. By science & fiction. By my heroes, including John Z. DeLorean. Automotive visionary (who gave us the muscle car and the gull-wing doored ‘Back to the Future’ DMC-12) and charming rebel. Entrepreneur who failed miserably due to circumstances but remained true to his ideals until his death. Such drive touches me.”

Allergy and energy

“What I really dislike? Injustice and hassle. We, the people, can do better than that. From purpose, with passion and full of meaning, that is my style. So Simon Sinek’s ideas are often reflected in my approach.”

Creating your living legend together

Are you looking for someone who will work with you in an inspiring, inventive and sincere way? Do you dare to go grand and magnificent? Then Mark will gladly help you write the history of your future – to shape your living legend. He might say something like:

“Life can be a bitch.
Death’s a tragedy.
And then you meet me.
Now let’s write a better story.”

(Loosely quoted from The Night’s Dawn Trilogy by Peter F. Hamilton)

“Wonder on, play on”

(Perhaps inspired by Steve Jobs’ words: “Stay hungry, stay foolish.)
