About Joe Berkowitz

I’m an analytical digital transformation guy. I like to take novel ideas or existing digital businesses and turn them into great digital businesses that solve painful problems.I also like working with people. A lot. Especially those with passion and intelligence.I believe the cup can always be 1/2 full—you just need a good cocktail of optimism, humor, and patients. I’ve traveled through many countries, several by motorcycle. I’m passionate about exercise, wellness, food, and digital health. I believe we need to sweat everyday. And animals – I love them too - you can always find a few running around my house. I’m concerned about the future of our planet. I founded and run a family charity that installs Internet access, networking equipment, WiFi, computers, SMARTBoards, printing centers, and the Google Education platform in deserving low income/disaster-ridden schools across the world. Those that know me affectionately referred to me as a technology nerd. I have three daughters that I love tremendously. I know me without a project to focus on is like a dog without a job. I enjoy a weekly balance of Yoga, Wim Hof, and Jiu Jitsu. I often dream about spending lots of free time restoring late 60’s Mustangs.I enjoy collecting and analyzing data as it often tells a clear story. I started nine companies, raised & spent millions, and saw exits. I’ve built, launch, and scaled hundreds of digital products to millions of consumers and businesses. I’ve held many digital strategy, transformation, product, technology, and strategic acquisition/growth marketing roles over three decades. I was part of the team that launched WSJ.com, Time.com, etc. digital commerce in the 90’s. I’m a closet digital strategy consultant. A win-win, 1+1=3 deal-maker. A big fan of the agile team— talent working together toward a common goal. I prefer to release digital products early then learn/evolve with real customer feedback. I’m not a great software engineer, yet a knack for hiring and running teams of engineers, product/project managers, information architects, UX designers, editors, QA experts, and delivery folks to launch and scale digital businesses. I spent a decade+ running multilingual paid (SEM, Social, etc.) and organic (SEO, Social, etc.) customer acquisition teams. I can write a solid set of requirements. I know the total cost of ownership of building and running digital businesses. I enjoy complex spreadsheets and financials.
