About
Marvin Kane – Rock Star, Comedian, Web Developer
The Rock Years
From the late sixties through the mid seventies, he was the lead guitarist with Sweet Smoke, a Brooklyn born rock n’ roll band that lived, worked and recorded in Europe. After three successful albums, the band dissolved and Marvin came to Boston to study at Berklee College of Music. He continued to play in bands throughout New England for the next two decades when he heard another call.
The Comedy Years
He always had a keen sense of humor and a natural ability to make people laugh so at some point in the eighties – he doesn’t remember exactly when – someone said “you should be a comedian”. He said “Ok”. During the next few years he came up through the ranks of Boston’s comedy clubs and earned a spot as one of five finalists in 1989′s prestigious WBCN Comedy Riot.
The Responsible Years
Being funny wasn’t paying the bills so in 1994 Marvin went to work for National Cable Communications, a Boston based advertising firm. It was there that he discovered the very new field of web design. In its unique blend of technical and creative, Marvin saw strong similarities to music. He jumped in with both feet and never looked back.
In 1997, he was hired by Cyrk Inc., a promotional services and marketing firm headquartered in Seattle, to become its Web Production Manager. There he helped develop ecommerce sites for many of America’s best known companies. A partial client list includes:
At Cyrk, Marvin also learned the importance of brand equity and how a well designed website can extend and enhance a company’s identity and ultimately its bottom line. He learned something else too.
Only the big companies with huge marketing budgets were getting attention.
What about the smaller companies? What about companies just like yours? This gaping hole, and Marvin’s entrepreneurial spirit became the impetus for the formation of Kaneworks.
Since its founding in 2000, Marvin has worked with dozens of businesses to establish and enhance their identity on the web. He combines creative talent with technical expertise to produce unique sites that stand out. There are no cookie cutters here, just good, original designs that help companies get customers.
And oh … he’s fun to work with too.
