Roger Horowitz Email & Phone Number

I'm an organizer. I do logistics, operations and I get people to show up. I started Pleasant Pops in 2009 because I loved the local fruit at DC area farmers' markets and decided to combine fresh, local fruit and the traditional fresh fruit ice pops that I'd grown up with in New York made by hand at corner stores.I was self employed for 9 years and took my organizing skills learned on the Obama Campaign in 2007 and 2008 to create processes, recruit customers, hire staff, manage people and run my own business. Pleasant Pops started selling in 2010 at the Mt. Pleasant Farmers' Market and eventually ended up expanding to 8 farmers' markets, an ice cream truck, 2 locations and wholesale.Now I've taken my skills to Solar United Neighbors, where I organize Solar Co-ops to help folks learn about solar, go solar, and fight for their energy rights (and help save the planet). At Solar United Neighbors I oversee a team of eight employees working on the go solar team and help manage and create new processes for our team. The Go Solar team runs a helpdesk that helps homeowners with solar issues and also helps folks go solar. We also support our staff in 11 states, DC and Puerto Rico and do utility rate modelling, create wordpress websites and manage Salesforce.

Listed skills include Operations Management, Political Campaigns, Small Business, Sales, and 15 others.
