Good questions are the doors to understanding, and active listening is the key to those doors. I’ve always asked questions. As a student I was the person raising my hand to ask “why” or “what is the meaning behind the story.” That’s one of the reasons why I am so passionate about marketing and communications. Listen closely, ask the right questions and you will learn the business strategy of your company and translate it into compelling visual and contextual messaging. Throughout my career as a marketing communications professional I have collaborated with senior leaders and across departments, incorporating a variety of communication channels, to motivate my audience to take action. - At McKesson I have contributed to a 5% increase in the employee engagement score for McKesson financial shared service center through consistent branding and strategic corporate messaging. - While at Constant Care Management Company, I improved Google ranking by 30% through strategic links, posted articles, press releases and themed advertising. - While at Fischer & Company, I strengthened email blast click-through rate to 20% and 25% (respectively) for email campaigns through effective use of direct mail, advertising and press releases. - While at Quest Diagnostics, I increased employee participation in the annual health screening by 60% through best-practices communications. - While at Decibel Products, I enhanced brand awareness by 30% through consistent branding, refreshed collateral, themed advertising and enhanced media relations. I make it a point to ask questions that help my leaders get to the root of the message. What action do you want your audience to take? I can help your marketing team develop compelling messages for internal and external audiences.
