Jimmy crack corn and I don’t care. Visionary, mover, shaker—take your pick. At the end of the day, Jim Brodsky created one of the fastest-growing boutique agencies in the country. Wherein lies the inspiration and drive—a chance meeting with his business partner in 2001, his mother’s maiden name, the desire to do it “my way?” Pure and simple, Jim is Sharp, and Sharp is Jim.

Jim got his start out of Brown University at Saatchi & Saatchi (where he met Bob) working on Johnson & Johnson. Jim moved over to Bates to further fine-tune his healthcare experience and then jumped the fence to the PR side, working for Superior Healthcare Group, Inc. (Kendall Corp.). Intent to broaden his areas of expertise, he followed his nose to the affluent marketplace to work with esteemed brands like OMO Norma Kamali and Giorgio Armani Le Collezioni.

In 2001, while in his apartment in his bathrobe, Jim started Sharp Communications, and literally walked down the street (not in the robe, of course) to knock on doors for business. It worked (he is persuasive), and before long, he was renting office space and hiring staff. The Client base represents his knowledge and expertise ranging from the arts and financial services to healthcare and education. Jim is recognized for his in-depth understanding of how to promote brands within the luxury marketplace and is often quoted in local, regional and national press. He’s waiting for your call.
