REAL Marketing is about telling compelling stories…

…here is ours.

212mvp Inc. grew like a vine on a brick wall entirely from the sweat and determination of two individuals that followed their passion during an economy filled with uncertainty.  Even though they came from entirely different backgrounds, it is no secret that opposites attract. What was taking a huge leap for one member, was just business as usual for the other.

One member brings 20 years of business development experience at the highest levels of corporate America; the other has been a full-fledged entrepreneur since starting his first business at age 10 and exiting it a few years later.

One has had consistent and steady income/benefits/401k for the better part of two decades, and the other has had more ups and downs than a roller coaster at Six Flags.  Separately, they are two different stories with two different skill sets, but combined, they bring a wealth of experience that is applicable from start-up, to small business, to Fortune 500 companies.

From harnessing the raw entrepreneurial spirit, to helping you maneuver through the corporate landscape, we can help you achieve your goals, and for many of you, we can help you determine what those goals are to begin with.

You have a story; we’re ready to help you tell it!

Brooks Hollan

“Maybe all that chlorine did effect his brain” is what some friends of said about Brooks after passing on a very nice corporate job offer years ago.  Forgoing the security and benefits of corporate life, Brooks has stayed focused and true to his entrepreneurial roots.  He began swimming 4-5 hours a day at the age of six, and didn’t stop until qualifying for the Olympic Trials and graduating from the US Naval Academy.  All that time in the pool didn’t leave much room for a job, so Brooks started his first business at the age of 10, where he ended up selling most of the assets before leaving for the Naval Academy and starting a new adventure in his life.

After serving his time in the Navy, Brooks got right back into the small business world where he had a string of foul balls and a few strike outs.  Not one to ever quit and give up, he learned from his missteps and hit his first real business success with a small security consulting company he co-founded.  Finding a niche with the Hollywood movie studios, his company offered a unique video service and consulting solution to help them combat financial loss due to movie piracy.

No matter what was going on, Brooks always managed to keep himself, and others in top physical condition through his business at FitLife212.  From always training a client or two since 2004 (NASM CPT), to helping people eat better as a Licensed Sports Nutritionist, Brooks’ lifelong love of fitness placed him on a path that intersected with Natalie Jill, who also had a passion for health & fitness.  It is this underlying passion for health and fitness that brought them together, but all of the life experiences in business that led to the creation of 212mvp.
