Think Patented, a Dayton-based Marketing Execution Company, has added John Rafner (formerly Development Director for the Association of Marketing Service Providers) as National Account Executive. Prior to his role at AMSP, Rafner served as the Regional Sales Development Manager for EFI, providing software solutions for the management of Printing and Mailing facilities. He founded Nice Lines Direct Mail, Inc. in 1982, and was Chairman of the Board for the Mailing Fulfillment Service Association from 2007 to 2008.

As Think Patented broadens both its array of marketing communications services (including commercial printing, fulfillment, promotional products and integrated solutions) and its market presence, Rafner will play a key role in the acquisition of new accounts and the deepening of existing client relationships — particularly in the area of fulfillment. Mr. Rafner will continue to work from his current Pennsylvania location, adding to Think Patented’s growing geographical reach.

According to David McNerney, Think Patented Director of Sales and Marketing, “John’s expertise and respected presence in the industry will help us articulate the quality and breadth of what Think Patented has to offer its customers, and will help us change the marketing communications landscape.”
