Here is a copy of the press release that appears on prweb.com.

GreatDad.com Announces Headquarters in San Francisco, California CEO and Founder, Paul Banas

Headquartered in San Francisco, California, GreatDad.com (https://www.greatdad.com) is a leading source of experience, recommendations, inspiration and advice for dads – delivered from the male perspective. Based on insight and his experience of more than 20 years of marketing and business development at companies including Unilever, Visa International, Alibris.com and most recently, Yahoo! Inc., Banas founded GreatDad.com.

San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) January 16, 2007 — At its new headquarters in San Francisco, California, GreatDad.com (https://www.greatdad.com) is a leading source of experience, recommendations, inspiration and advice for dads – delivered from the male perspective. Based on insight and his experience of more than 20 years of marketing and business development at companies including Unilever, Visa International, Alibris.com and most recently, Yahoo! Inc., Banas founded GreatDad.com.

As a new Dad, Paul Banas was looking for a business idea that would allow him the flexibility to spend time with his family. And, as a dad, he became very aware that many dads today are more involved in parenting but have limited resources from a man’s point of view from which to better understand the challenges of their changing role. Based on this insight and his experience of more than 20 years of marketing and business development at companies including Unilever, Visa International, Alibris.com and most recently, Yahoo! Inc., Banas founded GreatDad.com.

“While nothing can imitate or replace the special mother/child bond, dads develop incredible relationships with their children and it is vitally important that they have a place to discuss the parenting process from a male perspective. Data indicates that fathers today are more involved in family life versus a generation ago due to factors including post-911 security fears, loss of career-long job security, and increased demands on working moms and dual-career families,” said Banas. “GreatDad.com enables all dads – working, stay-at-home, single, gay, domestic partners, and more – to find ways to be involved and understand how dads are functioning as parents today.”

In addition to managing GreatDad.com, Banas is a member of the Marketing Executives Networking Group (MENG), former President and founder of the International Advertising Association’s San Francisco chapter, and a member of the San Francisco Thunderbird Alumni group. Paul sits on the Board of the Institut Francais de Washington (Chapel Hill, N.C.) and works on the Public Affairs committee for Planned Parenthood’s Golden Gate Chapter.

Banas is a native of Minnesota and earned a B.A. degree in French from the University of Minnesota. Paul earned an M.A. in French at Middlebury College in Middlebury, Vermont and holds an M.B.A. from the Garvin School of International Marketing at Thunderbird. A published author of fictional short stories, Banas resides in San Francisco with his wife and two children.

Great Dad Talks

Great Dad Talks is a series of conversations with experts on all aspects of the family adventure. With the perspective that “dads don’t always think like moms,” our mission is to support dad voices and our slightly different approaches to parenting. We’ll try to find solutions to every day challenges like getting kids off the couch and making STEM classes available for both boys and girls. But we’ll also tackle bigger issues when they come. The one main theme will be to support dads in the most important role of their lives that of being a great dad. Connect with us at greatdad.com and watch the video version of these podcasts at YouTube.com/greatdadnews

Decoding Dad’s Mental Load with Zach Watson
byPaul Banas

In this episode of Great Dad Talks, guest Zach Watson dives deep into the often-misunderstood topic of “mental load” in modern partnerships and parenting. Zach, known for his educational and relatable takes on invisible labor in relationships, shares how the mental and emotional workload disproportionately impacts women—often in ways that go unrecognized by men.

Whether you’re struggling with household challenges, feeling disconnected from your partner, or just want to strengthen your role as a dad and partner, this episode is for you.
