I led the Digital Business Unit, comprised of 700 FTE’s in product and marketing related roles and an additional 1300 in operating/supply-chain roles, with full P&L accountability for the Digital Business Unit to the board of directors and CEO. I took the business to market through 6000 sales representatives in 6 countries including inbound sales, outbound telesales and premise.

Stabilize a Rapidly Declining Internet Media Business – I ran our 50M unique visitor, $400M, global internet media business which includes local search, display, maps, local content, vertical search, etc. I stabilized the decline of this business to near flat from double digit decline.2. Grow a Digital Marketing Services Business – I built a digital marketing services business which I grew at a ~50% CAGR composed of websites, eCommerce, SEM, SEO, Display/Banner ads, and other search related marketing services. I led the acquisition of Moonfruit.com and operated the DIY website business, an award winning Do-It-Yourself platform and brand as a part of my business unit. The successful integration of Moonfruit created a $100M website business in under 12 months. I was globally responsible for the digital business across hibu's operating countries including the US, UK, Spain, Chile, Argentina, Peru, Philippines, Colombia, and India.
