Nick Armstrong

I'm the Geek-in-Chief behind WTF Marketing, dad, author, Ignite, PechaKucha, and TEDx speaker, audio drama enthusiast, and award-winning entrepreneur. More than anything, I love to make people laugh.

I teach two courses on Skillshare:

1. A Freelancer's Guide to Conflict Management and Negotiation

2. Intro To PR: Storytelling Pays in Marketing

I've co-organized community events like Fort Collins Comic Con, Startup Week Fort Collins, TEDxFoCo, Ignite Fort Collins, LaidOffCamp/CareerCamp, PodCamp Fort Collins, and more. My local efforts landed me a prestigious spot as one of BizWest's 40 Under Forty for 2016.

Alongside an amazing team of 13 other super-geeks, I built out Fort Collins Comic Con to benefit the Poudre River Public Library District and have raised over $75,000 for the Library to encourage youth literacy through comics.

Through WTF Marketing and partner organizations, I've served a wide array of happy clients ranging from mom-and-pop shops to Fortune 100's.

I've written three books: Psychotic Resumes, a Gen-Y resume creation and job search guide, Mess Hunter, a children's book that I also illustrated, and a cookbook called Men in Kitchens: A Good Day to Dine Hard. My marketing writing has also appeared in anthologies alongside business and marketing greats such as Seth Godin, Ash Ambirge, and Leo Babauta.
