Bio
Bert Adam
I worked closely with Kyle when he was the Partnership Manager at Sierra Trading Post. His personality was a great fit for this position, he created many new partnerships and strengthened the existing ones. Kyle is a very motivated individual with strong communication skills, those attributes aid him in accomplishing tasks in a timely manner.
Ryan Bell
Possibly the most valuable asset Kyle possesses is his inclination to ask good questions. The affiliate program at Veracity suffered from mismanagement of affiliate relationships, misplaced purchase orders, and poor usage of the application itself. Kyle followed up on every aspect of this program, and in just a few short months was able to double affiliate sales and increase EPC from under $10 to over $70 (at peak). Kyle is quick to learn and eager to find out about new ways of doing things. Just a few hours after I recommended him a search script to help find potential new affiliates, Kyle was using it to the fullest benefit and already scheduling calls. If you are seeking marketing assistance anywhere in the online space Kyle would make a valuable addition to your team on a full-time or contract basis.
