Love the golf industry, and would prefer to be spending all my time and effort working in the internet marketing field for the golf industry, but haven't been able to find a company (or group of companies) willing to pay enough to match my current salary. (Believe me, I wish I could). Happy to consult with golf businesses until I get the opportunity to do it full time.
My strengths are:
Taking a 30,000 foot view of a company's online presence, and maximizing all channels (online PR, SEO, SEM, blogs, images, video SEO, etc.)
Also, answering questions like:
If I have $XX to spend monthly, where will I get the biggest bang for the buck online?
What can I change/add/delete to my website to provide the biggest benefit?
I need short/long term options online. What are they?
I'm pretty good at looking at a site and putting together an online marketing plan. Of course, it isn't free, but it isn't too painful either.
Feel free to add me as a contact. the more the merrier, right? Never know when I'll be in your neck of the woods and be in need of a fourth! |
