About Ron Dawson

I'm passionate about helping brands tell engaging stories and implement results-oriented marketing. I combine an eclectic mix of experience from a 25+ year career working for large companies and small. Business development, financial analysis, people management, brand and content marketing, podcasting, writing, social media, and film and video production are all areas in which I feel comfortable and can thrive. Learn more at https://bladeronner.media.*A NOTE ABOUT CONNECTING WITH ME HERE ON LINKEDIN*I'm totally down for building my network. Especially if we're actually in a similar or related or even tangential business. But if out the gate you ask for my business, or want to set up a call, I will most likely pass it by. Not being mean; just too busy to be doing all that upfront. Get to know a fella first. 😊 Comment on some of my posts. Re-share some of my work. Let me get used to seeing and maybe even responding to you. Then in a month or so you can ask me out. 😊 TL;DR - feel free to shoot me a connection request, but save the pitch for later.
