“The way we engage in the marketplace has to attend to the fact that there are relationships everywhere. We’re not separate from others in the market.”

Tad Hargrave

Tad Hargrave is the founder of Marketing for Hippies. By 2006, he had become one of the first, full-time “conscious business” marketing coaches and created a business where he could share the understanding he had come to — marketing could feel good. You didn’t have to choose between marketing that worked (but felt awful) or marketing that felt good (but got you no clients).

Since 2001, Tad has been touring his workshops around Canada, the United States, Europe, and online. He brings refreshing and unorthodox ideas to conscious entrepreneurs and green businesses to help them grow without selling their souls. Instead of charging outrageous amounts, he started doing most of his events on a “pay what you can” basis. He is the author of sixteen books and workbooks on marketing.

Tad currently calls Edmonton, Canada, his home and has dedicated the rest of his days to preserving and fostering a more deeply respectful, beautiful, and human culture.
