As president and founder of Springboard Public Relations, Domenick Cilea started the agency in 1995 on a very simple premise: to provide clients with successful marketing and public relations campaigns that deliver tangible value. A marketing and public relations veteran whose career started in the late 1980s, he understands the dynamics of the "agency/client" relationship having worked on both sides of it. Before Springboard, Cilea held successful jobs working for a software company and NYC-based marketing agency, Set Marketing On. He left Manhattan in 1995 and has since helped clients direct hundreds of marketing and branding campaigns, product launches, and other successful events. Since its inception, Cilea and the Springboard team have helped hundreds of technology start-ups and innovators. He frequently places clients in major media and industry and trade publications such as CNBC, The Wall Street Journal, Barron’s, and The New York Times to name a few. Cilea completed his undergraduate degree at William Patterson University in 1988, with a B.A. in business administration. Cilea also holds an M.B.A. from Monmouth University.
