PITTSBURGH, Pa. — Pittsburgh Internet Consulting (PIC) announced today the addition of Blaine Clapper to its experienced marketing consulting leadership team. Clapper joins PIC following his previous roles as Chief Marketing Officer at EnergyCAP, LLC and Sr. Director of B2B Marketing at AccuWeather, Inc. He will be based in State College, PA and will report to Robb Luther, V.P. of Business Development.
Prior to joining EnergyCAP in 2008, Clapper led strategic marketing consulting services at State College-based marketing agency Lazerpro Digital Media Group, Inc., where he served as Vice President for seven years. He holds a B.S. in Marketing from The Pennsylvania State University and an MBA from the University of Pittsburgh’s Katz Graduate School of Business.
As PIC’s Director of Marketing, Clapper will lead the company’s internal marketing strategy and initiatives and will also serve as a marketing and sales consultant to PIC’s rapidly expanding customer base of growth-focused businesses. Clapper will assume the lead role in developing and delivering new consulting offerings, including Voice-of-the-Customer research and CMO-as-a-Service.
“Blaine is a welcome and necessary addition to our team,” stated Robb Luther. “We have always strived to lead by example with our own marketing and demonstrate to our current and prospective clients how to achieve great results. PIC has built a strong brand reputation and many valued customer relationships over the past two decades, and I’m excited for Blaine to be taking the helm, not only in promoting PIC, but also in delivering sound strategic marketing leadership, insight, and planning to our clients. His leadership qualities and previous experiences are in sync with PIC’s culture and dedication to long-term client relationships, and we know Blaine will have a large positive impact.”

I’m grateful for the opportunity to do what I love and to work daily with the highly skilled and customer-focused PIC team.”
PIC’s president, Jeff Schroeffel shared his excitement about what the addition means for PIC clients. “Blaine is an incredible addition to our team.
