Sean was an instrumental member of the Gemr marketing team, performing dual roles as both our Public Relations Manager and the Project Lead/Social Strategist for our branded original video content. His extensive industry contacts were invaluable to us in both positions, as well as his vast networking capabilities and keen attention to detail. Serving as co-creator, director, producer, and PR and social manager for Gemr's original docu-series "Collection Complete," Sean successfully scouted talent, closed contracts, secured crew, filming dates, and locations, scripted, interviewed, directed, managed shoot days, oversaw editing, placed content, sent press releases, and created social content for 28 critically-acclaimed episodes over a year and a half that garnered almost 1 million collective views. In his other press liaison and marketing duties at Gemr, Sean demonstrated a strong work ethic, sharp focus, excellent writing and editing skills, and tremendous ability to innovate and create winning marketing strategies, and was a true pleasure to work with, both to myself and all of our colleagues.

Sean came to Gemr to help with a number of tasks, notably, PR, brand awareness, and content creation. Sean developed a content strategy around an ingenious web series concept he conceived called "Collection Complete". Intended to help add to our top of funnel marketing lead generation, Collection Complete helped to drive our YouTube Channel north of 2 million views in less than a year. It drove organic conversions to the platform and assisted with user growth in ways that we did not expect. Additionally, Sean helped manage content and PR providers and assisted with the planning of events and contests that resulted in thousands of new users. His connections in the pop culture content space allowed him to obtain excellent press coverage for Gemr and helped the brand immensely when it came to recognition and awareness. His approaches and ideas were innovative, unique and he was able to make excellent use of resources deploying every dollar available to him to maximum effect. A great example of this was the production of Collection Complete. The show features many prominent collectors from the film, entertainment and pop culture community and has the look and feel of a Netflix show. Sean was able to produce the show routinely with astonishingly small budgets, maximizing every shoot for the most usable content and the maximum number of episodes that could be produced. This kept the overall cost per episode extremely low, often less than $750/per episode. A consummate professional, Sean's interactions with the team were always on point and positive. He was a highly respected and highly valued member of our marketing efforts and I will miss his creativity, professionalism and ability to get things done!
