Brandon Price

Marketing & Advertising

Dear Hiring Manager:

I am relocating to Florida and I feel I would make an excellent fit for this position. I provide an extremely diverse set of skills and experiences within the B2B and B2C markets. My background includes the ability to develop analysis and strategies, manage projects and teams, and also create and develop projects from start to finish. I can thrive within a team or multi-department setting while also being a self-starter in an individual role or in a lead position. I feel my experiences allow me to be prepared for any role, project, and market segment. My resume and portfolio illustrates my ability to produce success and creativity in a variety of settings. I offer a diverse set of skills and experiences:

• I have created marketing campaigns from concept to completion which includes strategy, analytics, budgeting, design, photography, copywriting, media buying, and vendor management. These campaigns have been for both, digital and print formats, with many being the combination of the two. My portfolio offers extensive examples, along with case studies, that show a wide variety of advertising projects and campaigns I have taken on.

• I have coordinated efforts and strategies with internal and external sales managers and teams regarding inbound lead generation, analysis, and engagement. A prime example of this was through franchise development in a B2B setting to bring in qualified leads for franchise expansion.

• I have generated leads for sales teams in B2B and B2C markets through digital advertising, industry portals, email marketing (through SalesForce, StreamSend, Constant Contact, and MailChimp), and through print advertising such as direct mail, event-specific promotions, and full campaign development.

• My ability for analysis of campaigns and strategies has been put to use when it comes to content marketing and analyzing market engagement, campaign analysis for promotions within locations and demographics for such businesses as restaurants, determining voter engagement for political campaigns, market analysis for franchise locations, and socioeconomic research for economic development within a county territory.

• I have coordinated departments as it regards marketing, branding, and quality control. In my time with online education development, I was responsible for managing over 50 designers, programmers, and content developers to produce consistent visual and written education tools.

• Managed marketing budgets have consisted of determining overall costs of campaigns, reviewing and managing vendor proposals. I have also set up marketing strategies and budgets across a calendar year to provide a complete map to success for franchisees to put local owners in the best position to succeed no matter their strengths or weakness regarding business development.

• I am also highly capable in a client-facing role to develop relationships and networking as I have done when aiding Pinal County in economic development through direct interaction with real estate developers, corporations, and commercial real estate agents at trade shows. Relationship development was also heavily leaned on during my time working within news and media to get the buy-in of local schools, government officials and departments, and the targeted community.

My portfolio offers two case studies of marketing projects that I have led and managed. The two case studies are in the restaurant industry and the news and media market. http://bit.ly/BMPMarketing

These case studies relate to the position by showing I have developed and led a variety of marketing programs and strategies. I can take two very different projects with very different goals and produce results. The case studies also illustrate that through planning and analysis, I was able to increase customer engagement, maximize profits, and increase sales. I have worked with nationwide chains and multi-unit locations developing marketing and advertising programs across multiple locations, supported sales, and development of documentation and training programs. I have worked with franchises with multiple locations across the nation developing advertising campaigns and marketing programs at the local and national levels.

• The time I have spent in news and media development has provided me with the ability to be tactical and strategic. A successful tactical marketing example would be relationship building with school districts, municipalities, and elected officials to get the buy-in and trust needed to achieve the strategic goals of market growth and readership engagement.

• I have lead, developed, and have been responsible for lead generation, customer loyalty, retention, and market engagement.

• Vendor management, including budgets, proposals, schedules, and cost analysis.

I come from a strong background in marketing and advertising in print, digital, radio, and TV formats. My previous experiences range from agency work, franchise development and consulting, real estate advertising, commercial brand building, branding and design in education, and most recently, news and media. This experience has included the strategy and development of advertising programs, branding, creative development, photography, and collateral for sales teams, production management, and content development. I feel that my skills, experience, and mindset would make an excellent match for this position and a fantastic fit for the business. I appreciate your consideration and look forward to hearing from you. Warmest regards,
