I found John to be truly an expert in the field of Internet ‘search engine optimization’ and ecommerce.

He came to work for us as a 2 month consultant and helped us understand many areas in our 5 websites (3 are retail transactional sites) and blogs that needed to be corrected.

John helped us make a plan to ‘clean up’ the areas that needed better meta tags and helped us understand the best use of content for SEO. He also helped us correct navigational user elements that needed improvement.

John organized a plan to understand the best practice of finding keywords for targeting in a Pay Per click campaign and set up a program that we could use ongoing.

John understands Google analytics and helped implement a better use of statistical analysis for our team.

His work habits are excellent and the effort he puts forth is excellent. I found John to be both friendly and a good ‘out of the box’ thinker.

I think John can help any organization seeking a person of high expertise in the field of SEO and Internet retail.

Feel free to contact me with any question or any input I can give on John’s behalf.

Sincerely,

He has a great managing style that is not only motivating but educational.

John is a warehouse of knowledge! You’ll learn something new every day with him around–especially when it comes to new & innovative marketing strategies.

He’s a passionate digital native, endlessly curious with the digital space and he’s constantly tracking the future of search engine marketing and its impacts.

As a graphic designer at Alliance Security, I work closely with John on a number of digital projects and marketing campaigns. He provides the appropriate level of guidance and thought leadership which has enhanced my design (and even marketing) knowledge and skills.

John is also a great motivator when it comes to learning about marketing. Our conversations are industry-driven, informative and I very often leave with a wealth of knowledge. His passion and enthusiasm for marketing is contagious and I value for what I’ve been able to learn from him.

As the Digital Marketing Manager, John has shown expertise in his field, proven to be a great team player and educator and is a top-notch collaborator who always has his eye on the prize. And with that said, I look forward to maintaining and growing our working relationship.

This letter is my personal recommendation for John. I my time working with John, I have been John’s co worker on the receiving end of his marketing artistry.

I found him to be consistently pleasant, tackling all assignments with dedication and a smile.
Besides being a joy to work with, John is a take-charge person who is able to present creative ideas and communicate the benefits.

He has successfully developed several marketing plans for our company that have resulted in increased revenue and keeping me extremely busy.

At Alliance, we saw an increase in profits immediately once implementing John’s ideas. The new revenue was a direct result of the plans implemented by John.

Though he was an asset to our marketing efforts, John also extraordinarily helpful in other areas of the company. In addition to writing effective sales modules for sales representatives, John assumed a preceptor role in the sales and marketing department, inspiring and motivating other employees.

I highly recommend John for any marketing task you have in front of you. He is a team player and would make a great asset to any organization.
