Rob Marbury
Chief Creative Director

rob@max2oadvertising.com

Rob Marbury is a founding partner of Max2o. He earned an ABJ from the University of Georgia with a major in Advertising and a minor in Graphic Design. Before starting Max2o in 1992, he served as the Art Director for Peachtree Advertising, and a partner at Art’oons. Rob’s responsibilities at Max2o include the development of creative strategies and concepts, the production of broadcast projects and the management of the studio.

Rob believes, “If you can make somebody laugh or smile, you make a connection and they remember you.” Campaigns that he has directed for Max2o have won many awards based on a unique blend of humor or “human appeal” with strategic messaging, all culminating in RESULTS for Max2o clients.

Rob has been married to his wife Cindi for 19 years. The Marbury Nation (otherwise known as Rob, Cindi and their four kids) enjoy soccer, tennis, band, scouts, camping and Georgia Bulldog Football.

One of the most interesting things Rob has ever done was submit a comic strip he wrote with longtime friend, Chris Brantly, to King Features Syndicate. It landed him a personal call with their comics editor, Jay Kennedy. Mr. Kennedy said the strip was in the “Top 50 of the 3,000 King Features has received this year" and offered suggestions and encouragement to try again.

Alas, Rob opted instead to start a new advertising agency with Tom Matte. At least the name of the strip did survive: “Max.”
