The Scarboroughs
David and Mary live full time in the mountains of western North Carolina. They feel fortunate to have built a thriving business that lets them do what they love — sharing their passion for marketing with readers, seminar students, and conference audiences.
It also leaves room for what matters most: their individual and shared hobbies, and time with each other, their children, grandchildren, extended family, and friends.
