I am a marketing leader best known for strategic planning and innovative ideas. I help professional products and service organizations going through transformations whether it is building brand awareness, launching products, delivering lead generation and conversion, or retaining customers. Organizations hire me to plan and develop integrated marketing solutions that make customers happy and exceed company goals.
My experience as a brand and integrated marketer has included strategic planning for both equity building and sales driving efforts. I have been successful in leading the strategic vision of the organization throughout my career while always looking at results analysis to build stronger performances in the future. Developing data-driven marketing strategies started with my direct marketing background. Analysis, testing and evaluation of marketing strategies and tactics are part of the continuous improvement process necessary for transformation and innovation.
Colleagues and those in my network view me as adaptive given the variety of verticals, industries and agencies I’ve worked with. I have helped manage through growth, turnarounds and market exits. Regardless of which industry or vertical I may be working with, strategic marketing leadership remains the same. How does your product or service solve a customer’s need or problem? The customer may not even know they have that need. If you can overcome the barriers or obstacles with a persuasive, thoughtful and authentic solution, you will succeed.
How I Add Value...
