Probably the most dynamic job I've ever had. I have spent 14 years helping my community develop a tourism plan, where I helped create fun and innovative marketing programs; written more than 20 (all successful) grant applications for tourism marketing; been a key member of 3 different marketing consortiums; and been recognized by my peers within and without, as a leader to be trusted and respected. But most importantly who is passionate about her job and her community. Find It In Farmville!

Responsible for then, standard marketing efforts (print media and radio spots) to bring business to this small company; however, as networking opportunities presented themselves, I geared the company in that direction. Business Networking International; Manufacturer's Association and other organizations were brought to the attention of the owners of Infopac and presentations made which garnered business opportunities this small company had never had before.

These locations were all 24/7/365. During my tenure there, and through restructuring, there were no more local store managers - the Market Managers managed their market and each individual store location. Challenging, to say the least.....
