NCR Corporation (2018)
At NCR my role was senior marketing and content strategist. Aside from the kind of production content development and management you'd expect in this kind of role, I was responsible for developing a content strategy framework for 2019, which included influencer marketing and audio content.
Much of the day-to-day was working with program and campaign managers to establish their goals, how content can support those and the way we can measure success, while guiding subject matter experts in the creation of original thought leadership pieces.
Industries: B2B, retail, restaurants, banking
Here's what my resume says:
NCR Corporation – Senior Marketing and Content Strategist | June 2018 to December 2018
● Creating content strategies to drive B2B lead generation and conversions for campaigns and programs among global audiences in the banking, hospitality and retail industries
● Carried out feasibility study for influencer and audio content strategies
● Interpreting product positioning documents and goals into creative briefs and content strategies, including individual content assets, mapping content ecosystems and defining success metrics
● Creating and mapping processes to increase quality and speed of content production
● Managing freelance producers, including creating at-a-glance voice and messaging guide
● Developing campaign messaging for brand and product marketing

LinkedIn Long Form Posts (All Day, Errr Day)
I love LinkedIn. I've really just scratched the surface of writing long form content there, but I can see it being something I do regularly. I'm passionate about user experience, psychology and neuromarketing, customer experience, and really anything that puts the customer first.
I believe 2017 will be the year we move toward customer intention measurement, not just asking "Did the customer engage with our brand," but going further with "Was the customer able to engage with our brand in the way they wanted, or did they settle for what was available?"

List Partners Inc., The List Online & Winmo 2016-2017
At List Partners Inc., I was content strategist for the marketing team, heading up sales enablement content for the various marketing channels we used.
Mostly that means I planned SEO content, developed the right content for each of our audiences, dug deep into Google Analytics to see what worked and what didn't.
I try to always place the customer at the center of their own journey, and make every piece of content something that's about them not an attempt to sell to them. That said, sales funnels being what they are, some content pieces have more salesly positioning than others.

Atlanta Eats - 2012-2013
While I was consulting and freelancing, I worked with another start up, a food TV show based loosely on the Diners, Drive-ins and Dives format, but exclusively around Metro Atlanta.
My role here was to create content to support the TV segments, not strictly reviewing the restaurants, but certainly highlighting the good and interesting things to know, and where to eat.
The truth is that supporting the video segments was only a small part of my job, I live-tweeted the show every weekend, interviewed chefs and food-scene people, developed an editorial calendar for blog features and attended show shoots to share the process for our social media audience.

Company.com 2009-2011
Company.com began life in 2008 as a B2B services reseller. If you were going to set up a business, the idea was that Company.com would be your one-stop shop for all the things you'd need, from legal incorporation filing to VoIP service and payment card processing.
I joined in 2009 to start adding some content to make it a better site for advising its members. Yes, it was a membership site, and that was part of its downfall. By 2011, and several expensive site overhauls later, the powers that be started cutting costs, including my content team.
Here are some of the useful, fun and informative things I wrote during my time there.
In 2013, the owners had set a new direction and needed some fast content and a process for generating even more -- inexpensively and at scale. I came back to consult with them on these projects.
