Happy to connect!I’m always interested in adding students or business professionals in retail, manufacturing, and digital marketing (SEM, SEO, Analytics, Email, Social Media, etc.). Current and former colleagues are always welcome.Lifelong student of how humans make buying decisions and I enjoy sharing what I’ve learned. I’ve been privileged to speak at many great industry conferences including: Pubcon, Online Marketing Summit (OMS), Search Marketing Expo (SMX), Search Engine Strategies (SES), eMetrics, Midwest Direct Marketing Association (MDMA), Digital Summit, SEMPO, MN Search, Zenith Conference (Duluth MN), and others.Since 2007, I’ve been a Partner & Co-Founder of NordicClick Interactive. We’re a full service Digital Marketing Agency and our mission is to bring customers to our customers – and ensure they keep them.Over 20 years’ experience in multiple facets of digital marketing / media including:• Ecommerce implementations, management, and revenue performance optimization (domestic & international).• SEO since 2001• Pay Per Click since 2003• Email marketing since 1998 (scars to prove it)• Affiliate marketing since 2001• Analytics since 1998 (pre-dating Google Analytics. Remember “HitBox”?)Prior to Digital Marketing, I had 5 years’ experience in Home Video Distribution. Long before video could be streamed over the internet, we had VHS tapes (poor picture quality, required “rewinding”, and sometimes fell victim to a hungry VCR). I worked for an organization that distributed the tapes to small retailers, grocery, and convenience stores for rental and purchase.More than anything else, I LOVE talking with marketers and executives trying to solve a problem (usually customer acquisition or retention related), digging into the data, and helping smart people grow their business.Business Leader ▪︎ Lifelong learner ▪︎ Speaker ▪︎ Mentor ▪︎ Strategist ▪︎ Founder ▪ Marketer ▪︎ Data lover
