The meeting will be on Thursday Jan. 12, at the Saugatuck Congregational Church at 245 Post Road E., Westport.
Shereshewsky became a marketing man the old-fashioned way — he started in the mailroom, at Young & Rubicam, and rose to become a senior vice president. From there he moved, first to a direct marketing firm, then a public relations agency.
With Seth Godin, he started yoyodyne.com, the premier online direct marketing promotion firm. After Yahoo bought the firm, Shereshewsky stayed on and for nine years ran Yahoo’s Media Sales Group. He left that to become CEO at Grandparents.com, a “life stage website for the baby boomer grandparents.”
Most recently, he formed a new marketing consulting firm, GrownUpMarketing, to help companies better position themselves and better tell their stories to agencies and marketers.
Y's Men of Westport/Weston is an organization of retired and semi-retired men with a continued interest in activity, fellowship, learning and community service.
