Anaya Consulting Group of AZ Partners with Milwaukees Castillo Consulting Services to form Aeutus Marketing

Aeutus Marketing puts emphasis on targeting small businesses and Spanish speaking business owners

PHOENIX, AZ, September 21, 2010 – Former bank employees and now business partners, Christopher M. Castillo and Alexander B. Anaya, have recently teamed up to form Aeutus Marketing headquartered in Phoenix Arizona. The pair met four years ago when they both worked for M&I Bank. Christopher Castillo is from Milwaukee, WI and worked for M&Is; Corporate Marketing Division and met Alex Anaya while visiting Phoenix to conduct Marketing Training for M&Is; Business and Commercial Bankers. Castillo was impressed with the Phoenix area and eventually left M&I in early 2009 to focus on his business, Castillo Consulting Services, that has been assisting small business owners with Marketing and Public Relations support for over five years.

Castillo moved to Arizona in early 2010 and brings over 17 years experience in Marketing, Internet Services, Public Relations and Communications. He is now the CEO of Aeutus Marketing and holds his BBA, MBA and has received various awards for helping the community and volunteering his services to assist aspiring entrepreneurs.

Alex Anaya, Aeutus Marketing COO, also recently left a banking career at M&I Bank after working there over six years. Anaya states “One of the numerous benefits of working for M&I bank of Arizona was that I was able to meet many business owners, however I soon learned that the services that I provided wasnt enough to help them become more profitable. Many of them knew about their particular industry, however most of them did not know how to properly market themselves and target a certain niche.” Anaya continued “I would also get many Hispanic business owners approaching me because many of them only spoke Spanish and did not have a clear understanding on how to start a business in the U.S.” Working for a very conservative bank, he was limited to the knowledge that he could share and started getting requests from some of these clients to assist them with such things as helping them with the basics to get a business started and for Marketing and Advertising assistance. In 2009, he created Anaya Consulting Group to assist people with starting business entities as well as with Marketing and Social Media support.

Christopher Castillo and Alex Anaya both understand the importance of reaching out to the public in order to increase market share, as that is always the goal for all financial institutions. Aeutus Marketing will focus on assisting small and medium size business and currently has a small staff. One of the primary focuses of Aeutus Marketing is being an advocate to assisting Latino owned businesses.

Anaya comes from a family of entrepreneurs who have migrated to the U.S. to live the American dream of running their own enterprises. Christopher Castillo also has a background in assisting Hispanic owned businesses. Castillo previously worked as a Technical Assistant at the Univeristy of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) for nearly four years in a bilingual entrepreneurial course geared toward helping people create business plans regardless of their English proficiency. He is also a founding board member of Milwaukees Latino Entrepreneurial Network (LEN) that started in 2005 with nine members and now has over 200. He helped LEN become nationally recognized, and awarded, by the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce for the past two years.

Castillo has a long history of helping business owners with business plan creation and with his passion, Marketing. In 2006, he was the United States Congress Certificate of Special Congressional Recognition recipient, in recognition of outstanding and invaluable services to the community. He was also the 2009 Multicultural Entrepreneurial Institute (MEI) Volunteer of the Year Award recipient as well as the Wisconsin 2008 Small Business Administration (SBA) Minority Business Champion, Nominee and Runner-up. In 2006 he recieved the Community Service Award for the dedication, commitment and service to entrepreneurs and business owners of the Greater Milwaukee Area, presented by El Centro Empresarial and UWM. In addition, Christopher is an active board member at his alamater, University Of Wisconsin-Whitewater (UWW), for their Business School’s Minority Business Program. Castillo also has a passion for helping youth with their business aspirations as well. For the past four years, he has volunteer at the Bilingual Entrepreneurship Summer Training (BEST) Youth Camp sponsored by The Latino Entrepreneurial Network, Milwaukee, WI.

One of the areas that Alex Anaya is very passionate about is to stimulate the growth of minority owned businesses, as many truly do not understand the benefits of marketing their products or services appropriately. As a Business Management graduate from the University of Phoenix, he is prepared to take his knowledge and experience to the next level of becoming active with in the community and assisting minority owned enterprises in reaching their aspirations.
