Bio
Monique Drost ▷
Een goede interviewer, prettige tone-of-voice en kennis van SEO. De eerste dingen waar ik bij Ewoud aan denk. Ewoud was als tekstschrijver betrokken bij de nieuwe website van Livit Orthopedie. In zijn webteksten weet hij ingewikkelde materie te vertalen naar begrijpelijke copy. Ik was onder de indruk van de manier waarop hij mensen interviewt en persoonlijke portretten optekent. Dankzij zijn kennis en vaardigheden kon ik als project- en contentmanager heel makkelijk met hem sparren. Ga je voor resultaat in een online project, dan is Ewoud de copywriter die je zoekt.

I've had the chance to work with Ewoud for half a year at Glasses Group Global in Kuala Lumpur, Malaisia. We worked closely in the digital marketing department; our mission was to define and launch digital marketing campaign in all APAC. Ewoud was very helpful and a great added value in both content creation and publishing for the entire digital campaign process. He is naturally a copywriter-oriented. His writing and concept skills are immense and various. Innovative, calm and talented, Ewoud brings a very exclusive view on creative choices. He managed to adapt to the growth of the company and came up with great creatives ideas. Ewoud is one of the people I'd really appreciate to work again with.

Performance Marketing Manager
-
Jan 2015 - Jun 2015
As the performance manager, I was responsible for the digital marketing efforts in 14 markets across 2 continents. Glasses Online is a rapidly growing company emerging in multiple markets in order to become the largest eye wear retailer in the world. It was my job to align, execute and optimise all digital utterances for all the countries in both Asia and Europe. To do this profitably, it requires a full understanding of the digital journey users are making across multiple devices in a fast pace world. With the full understanding comes the ability to fully track the journey and be able to transform this data into useful insights and understanding of the behaviour. This is an important aspect of optimising the digital experience we are giving users through paid, owned and earned media. Show less
