Edward DuCoin

In 1984, with less than a $500 investment, Edward launched Impact Marketing. He quickly grew the small company into a thriving organization that was later publicly traded on NASDAQ and listed as one of the “500 Fastest Growing Companies” for three consecutive years by INC. Magazine. Edward built his team to include more than 1,000 members and attained numerous entrepreneurial awards, including a feature in Success Magazine that recognized him as one of the “Most Successful Entrepreneurs in the Country”.

In 2000, after Impact was sold, Edward returned to his entrepreneurial roots and over the past six years has founded three companies and raised over $15 million in equity investment.

Edward is regularly invited to speak to business and trade groups on topics such as business operational excellence and marketing.

Edward earned a Degree in Marketing and Entrepreneurial Management from the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania. He is the published author of the best seller “Wake Up & Live a Life You Love” and released his second book “The Glass is Half Full and Frozen” in May of 2006.

He is also a contributing author to the books "Starting Your Own Business: A Step-By-Step Blueprint for the First-Time Entrepreneur" publisher McGraw-Hill; and "Extraordinary Entrepreneurship:The Professional's Guide to Starting an Exceptional Enterprise" publisher: John Wiley & Sons.
