Joel Halpern

After graduating from art school, Joel spent about 10 minutes as a starving artist before the business world found him. He began his career at St. Blues Guitar Co. There, he applied his creative skills to developing marketing plans that were instrumental in growing the global footprint for the company by expanding the product offerings to both South America and Europe.

Following experience as Marketing Director for Prudential Douglas Elliman and in research and consultation for Just Kid Inc., in 2012 Joel founded Loaded for Bear, a full-service brand development firm. The firm worked with clients all over the United States in various business sectors. In June of 2017 Joel joined a Paris based consultancy as a partner where he focused on developing branding and messaging for European companies looking to expand to the U.S. Now he consults with companies from all over the world on branding and marketing. He is a mentor for the Global Accelerator Network, StartCo., and The Refiners.
