  I consult with clients to craft innovative strategies that increase their companies’ revenue, ROI, and profits.

I target, qualify, and warm up ideal prospects on behalf of our 40+ B2B clients utilizing the latest marketing technology, mainly automation and artificial intelligence. I consistently meet and exceed industry expectations of performance metrics by (1) optimizing client profiles to reflect each campaign, (2) streamlining the set-up and follow-up processes, and (3) A/B testing what messaging bypasses gatekeepers and reaches top, C-level executives. I created content (e.g., social media posts, blogs, ad copy, etc.) and revised out-of-date material in accordance with modern design principles. I also consulted with the creative team to ensure that all print and digital media followed branding guides and met company standards.
