I managed all marketing for the company's acne and feminine care lines as well as new product development, increasing sales +52% in three years after taking over the P&L (reversing decline of -27% over prior three years). I stretched a tight budget--creating a sophisticated website with SEO on a shoestring, forming brand partnerships, negotiating value-added, conducting in-house PR, and leveraging emerging media including social media, podcasting, videos, blogger relations, direct e-mails and mobile advertising.The direct response television advertising program I initiated resulted in the same in-store sales lift at half the cost while driving e-commerce sales.I created and launched the company’s first new category entry, a feminine care line, which reached #3 sales rank in test market and represented 26% of company sales in its 2nd year. I developed and test-marketed 10 products, launching 6 nationally.Beyond my marketing responsibilities, I participated in corporate strategic decisions, forecasted and analyzed sales, supervised consumer relations, participated in sales & investor presentations, managed budgets and P&Ls, and more.

Yuba City, Ca, Us

I joined the company just after a new management team had come on board with an aggressive 5 year growth plan. First on my agenda was to reposition the $140mm Sunsweet Prune brand with a logo and packaging overhaul, new messaging and advertising strategy, and eventually a new name (Dried Plums). We targeted a younger audience with a health, vibrancy & convenience message, further differentiating the product line from its commodity-like competitors. Through an integrated, multi-faceted PR, promotions, and advertising program we achieved double-digit growth.Next, we tackled product line enhancement for our specialty fruit which, under my supervision, led to a doubling of sales and movement from #6 to #2 in the category. Finally, I conceived of and launched an innovative line of fruit bits, "Fruitlings," that introduced our products into the higher velocity produce section of the supermarket, created the first dried fruit line with a fun personality, and exposed our brand to a new family target.Other projects included the development and test-market of a shelf-stable smoothie line, sun-dried tomatoes, and growth of the prune juice business by introducing a new use (hot prune juice).
