• Peter Barnet

  • Peter Barnet brings a wealth of business acumen and a client-focused philosophy to his role as CEO of Promosis. At previous agencies, Peter led account teams that served an extensive list of clients including Computerworld, Marshalls, Ellio's, Amalie Motor Oil, Lotus Development, Dow Jones, ITT Sheraton, Parker Brothers and the Fram and Autolite brands of Allied.
    
    With Promosis, Peter has been involved in every aspect of promotion marketing — from highly visible sweepstakes and games to powerful sales incentive programs for high tech, consumer, business-to-business, finance and retail clients — such as Adweek Magazines, Art.com, Bose, Chief Executive Group, Chico's, Fleet, Forbes, InterMedia Outdoors, LL Bean, Marblehead Bank, Marshalls, T.J. Maxx, and Veryfine.
    
    Peter's clients recognize him as a valued advisor who can navigate through the most complex marketing challenges. He's a strategic thinker who understands the fundamentals of communications, the myriad legal requirements, the importance of strong creative, the need for responsive service — all the elements that help produce promotions that are timely, relevant, and profitable.
    
    Peter heads the Board of Deacons at Marblehead's Grace Community Church and serves on the Board of Trustees of the Boston Yacht Club as well as on the Board of Corporators of Marblehead Bank. He is an avid sailor who, along with his wife Janet, enjoys parenting their daughters Jessica and Kaitlin (who both hate sailing). Peter lets loose occasionally on stage with the Marblehead Little Theater and Marblehead SummerStage.

• Harry Janock

  • Harry brings a high degree of creativity, strategic acumen, and management authority to Promosis. He began his marketing career at Eastern Bank, where he supervised the Bank's enterprise-wide merchandising efforts, including promotions, point-of-purchase advertising, public relations, and special events.
    
    Subsequently, Harry joined a Boston-area promotion marketing firm as Account Manager, where he worked with clients such as Dunkin' Donuts, Stride Rite, and Marshalls to ensure their promotions were executed with utmost efficiency and professionalism.
    
    A 1998 and 1999 Boston Marathon survivor, Harry's strong organizational and communication skills ensure his clients' integrated marketing needs are met or exceeded. Harry works with all of Promosis' clients, including TDS Telecom, iRobot, Bose, and Channing Bete.
    
    Harry is a graduate of Tufts University and lives with his wife, three sons and golden retriever in Marblehead.

• Tom Paschetto

  • Tom's resume reads like the recent history of indigenous but internationally-known businesses of Marblehead — ten years as sailmaker and Service Manager with Hood Sailmakers...Customer Service Manager with Biosyn, Inc. (creators of The Zone Diet)...five years as Fulfillment Manager with Mill House McCabe. And now, Promosis.
    
    Tom's diligence and detail-management skills have charmed clients like Fleet, Bose, Forbes, LL Bean, Stride Rite Corporation, Dunkin' Donuts, BankBoston, IBM, Lotus Development, New Balance, Dow Jones...and many more.
    
    A resident of Salem, Tom is an avid saltwater fisherman — and a stubborn Yankees fan, a sad accident of birth.
