Hey Hiring Managers!

Have you been looking for someone with first-hand knowledge of marketing, business, data entry and database management, and sales? Need a guy who’s a team player and can contribute valuable ideas while also supporting the group dynamic? Looking for a guy with drive and passion and the ability to throw himself 100% into any task? Do you need a fresh personality in the office place to spice things up a bit?

That’s me, David Earl Long!

My years of working for top companies in significant roles has given me the ability to see through any problem and shoot straight for a solution, saving time, energy, and money. Being a partner of an extremely successful PR agency has taught me the ins-and-outs of running a business, from business plan to customer interaction! Taking a shot at a music career taught me the ability to market not only myself, but events, products, and services successfully!

An outgoing personality and an incredible work ethic comes with the package. So look no further, you’ve already found the best!
