Profile

I believe an accurate profile is best reflected by those in closest proximity.

My previous clients refer to me as their "Glue Guy", their "5-Tool Player" reaching for a baseball metaphor, or the hackneyed "Swiss Army-Knife" for my dutiful work ethic and capacity... or, my utility ability**.

A close colleague aptly noted during a corporate strategy session, "You see everything as a puzzle - a knack for solving problems from a dual qualitative and quantitative approach."

A mentor challenged me to the Asher Strategies APQ, "you know you're a skilled communicator, but what don't you know about yourself." My high EQ scores accurately assess a brand's pain points audit before I research the business and sector. My knowledge and experience allow me to execute projects and ongoing services at an expansive capacity and high ROI-driven performance level.

Mar 2021 - Aug 2021

Director Of Marketing Strategy

Accomplished measurable growth for MSPs, VARs and Vendors via Demand Generation and Lead Generation strategy and management. During my tenure, a key executive concisely enunciated my professional purpose and job role, "you are essentially the internal business and client strategy advisor" due to the player-role adaptability for the myriad of different cross-department and client facing duties. Analysis, strategy, process, and continuous optimization of client marketing campaigns' KPIs throughout the marketing funnel (MQLs) and sales funnels (SQLs) created a more deterministic ROI forecast.

In first 30 days, increased productivity by eliminating 400+ overdue tasks in 100+ projects for 75+ current client accounts in a collaborative effort with the agency, business development team and key executives. Restructured project management tool, Wrike, with time cost efficient, scalable templates respecting agile work methodology.

Productized monthly, integrated marketing campaigns into saleable Gameplan** product procured from the previous 7 years (or 84 months) of agency’s syndicated, industry-specific topic driven content. All 200+ Gameplan** – with 10-15 digital assets in each Gameplan** - were contemporized and prepared to possess evergreen, scalable and paired with online and offline tactics. 3,300+ digital assets were custodied in a white-labeled, PRM software - still in it's infancy - from business-to-business Channel Partner Management partner in an effort to create a passive revenue stream with the development of an e-commerce marketplace for prospective, budget-efficient Managed Service Provider businesses.

**Gameplan isn't the actual term. I wanted to keep internal agency information confidential.
