  Working as the Marketing manager for both the Auto side and Marine side, I maintained relationships with all vendors and negotiated contracts and marketing plans. I did hire out a few vendors to handle some of the things needed to maintain a strong marketing mix, but most of the Digital Advertising was done by me. I created SEM campaigns, Display Campaigns, and wrote Radio advertisements. I worked with local publications and made sure to take advantage of marketing mixes that were relevant to our goals.
