Samuel Hollis is a Content Strategist | Marketer | Writer at Freelance. He possess expertise in email marketing, social media, customer service, content writing, zendesk and 8 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "I worked with Sam for 3.5 years at Animalz and had the privilege of watching his career advance as he grew from content marketer into a strategist and team lead. As a CSM I worked directly with him on client-facing tasks like developing strategies and addressing writer- or content-related customer concerns. Sam taught me a lot during my early days at Animalz, and I'm lucky to have been able to work alongside him for so long. He's a great strategist and a supportive coworker, and would be an asset to any team.", "I had the privilege of having Sam as my team lead for 2 years at a content marketing agency and he is hands-down the best manager I’ve ever had. It’s hard to put into words what a profound impact he had on me personally and professionally during that time. His brilliance is only rivaled by his empathy and compassion for those he leads. Sam was such a rock for our team during org transitions, industry changes, and personal challanges over the years. He never failed to ask “how can I help you?” or “what do you need?” with the kind of sincerity that allowed his team to answer honestly and without reproach. Because of the transparency this cultivated on our team we were able to better support each other and face challenges head-on. Sam also has such a depth of understanding about content strategy that he intuitively knows how to leverage it for the best results. He has a mind for process and innovation; he approaches each challenge by asking not just “how can we solve this?” but “how can we do it better than it’s ever been done before?” Sam really made himself invaluable to our team and organization. Even before I was lucky enough to have Sam as a team lead, if there was ever a strategy question or client opportunity someone would inevitably end up tagging Sam in simply because his reputation for brilliance was so well established across our org. I could write a book on what amazing human and professional Sam is, but suffice it to say; anyone would be beyond lucky to have him on their team.", and "I worked with Sam at Animalz for 3.5 years, first as content marketers and eventually as content strategists and team leads. As a result I've gotten a long view of Sam's skills as both a marketer and a people manager. During our time as Team Leads at Animalz, Sam and I managed upwards of 10 employees and a portfolio of 15-20 clients at a time. As you can probably tell, that is an immense workload requiring a high degree of organization, flexibility, and task prioritization. What I admire most about Sam is how unflappable and calm he is, even when dealing with a high workload and heavy stress. Sam is a terrific colleague, content strategist and people manager. I truly hope I get the chance to work with him again some day!"
