As the founder of DK Strategic Marketing Edge, Darren works with small businesses and higher education institutions to help them think about marketing in a different way. After 20 years at Indiana University, including roles within Kelley School of Business and IU Online, as well as earlier experience at Procter & Gamble. He brings a rare blend of corporate, academic, and analytical expertise. His decision to launch his own firm wasn’t impulsive, it was a result of years of reflection and a simple but powerful realization: he didn’t want to look back and wish he never had tried.
What Darren offers through his business can be misunderstood at first, and that’s reasonably intentional. He doesn’t build websites, design logos, or run ad campaigns. Conversely, he focuses on what comes before all that: strategy. His work focuses on positioning, messaging, growth planning, and helping organizations understand not just how to market themselves, but why their approach should work in the first place. In a world that often jumps straight to execution, Darren slows the process down, ensuring every decision is grounded with purpose and clarity.

As the founder of Lambert Consulting, host of the Mind Yo’ Business podcast, a former professor, and even a stand-up comedian. Lambert’s work lives at the crossroads of business, storytelling, and human connection. Since launching his advertising agency in 2010 and his podcast in 2017, he has consistently focused on one core idea: success is not about appearances, it’s about authenticity, flexibility, and learning through real experiences.
His well-established philosophy is very potent in his podcast, Mind Yo’ Business, born out of frustration from overly scripted, surface-level interviews. Lambert set out to create something different; conversations that truly feel real. With very few pre-written questions and no attempt to command the flow. On the contrary, episodes unfold like a conversation over a coffee or a beer—complete with interruptions, a lifelike feel, and moments that are both honest and down-to-earth. His goal is as easy as ABC: to show the real path to success, including the mistakes, failures, pivots, and struggles that most people conceal in today’s world.
