Worked to grow Huddle by developing marketing partnerships that met client goals while meeting internal profit targets. Daily duties included, ideation, presentations, contract negotiation, sales planning, and travel. Strong ideation allowed us to launch marketing platforms that delivered unique outlets helping national/regional brands look and feel local. In short, we took National to Neighborhoods. For example, I created and launched a platform called Make it Better whereby healthcare providers and/or CPG’s can reach household decision makers (MOM’s!!) by owning and activating a sponsorship around hundreds of school nursing offices. Highlight of this role: The Clients and Ideas. I met great people while at Huddle. Was also able to brainstorm with some of the Top brands and Agencies in North America.
