2005
As The On Call Marketing Director, I do the functions you would expect a Marketing Director to do. Most importantly, I work closely with my clients to create a written marketing plan that gives them the foundation for effective programs. I often work with current staff and with Marketing Directors, replacing the need for an advertising agency. I tap into my established network of creative and production professionals to create the just-right team for my clients' needs. I've worked with advertising agencies and can provide the same services they offer but at a more personal, hands-on level. Also at a lower rate. Some of the types of projects I have worked on include new product launches, test market product roll-outs, media planning and buying. I'm adept with public relations and social media initiatives. Event planning and execution. Creative team coordination and leadership. Drop me a note. I'll be happy to sit down to discuss how we can work together to build your sales.
