Craig Perrine (Austin, Texas) is an Internet Marketing strategist and the co-author of the Best Seller ‘Inspired Marketing’ (Wiley, 2008) with Dr. Joe Vitale.

He started in offline direct marketing in the mid 1990s and has helped generate millions in sales for companies large and small from diverse industries.

His first successful six figure info product business was in the stock market niche in 1993 and was a runaway success after years of struggling.

After years running his own info product business, Craig jumped with both feet into the Dot Com mania in the late nineties in search of massive stock option payday.

While he did generate millions in sales with those companies he worked with, none of them turned out to live up to expectations of going public and in fact the last one laid everyone off abruptly, including Craig.

Somewhat wiser from the experience, in 2001 Craig went back into direct marketing, this time with a focus on the Internet using the power of email marketing.

His first client generated over $610,000 in sales from a single promotion to a small email list and after several such successes, Craig chose to focus exclusively on creating his own internet businesses.

In 2003 he got his first major online success when he partnered with Kevin Wilke and Matt Gill and NitroMarketing.com out of Dallas and launched several projects together that generated sales approaching a million dollars.

During that time with Nitro, Craig learned how to build huge lists, perfected email copywriting tactics, and learned what mistakes beginning marketers made when using email.  In the pivotal time period around 2004 when the CanSpam law went into effect, Craig perfected strategies to build solid relationships with permission based subscriber lists and created courses and coaching programs to help teach marketers how to profit using the power of email effectively.

In 2005 Craig became known as the ‘Maverick Marketer’ and launched MaverickMarketer.com and became a frequent speaker at leading Internet marketing seminars.  He is also featured in many other best-selling online marketing books and courses.

Today Craig speaks on Inspired Marketing, has several ongoing joint venture projects and new products launching in the coming months.
