1995-2001 Chinook Press, Inc. (Vancouver, WA) General Manager of this biomedical publishing firm. In this position, I solved problems for employees and clients. Convinced clients that our service (printed clinically-oriented newsletters to their referring doctors) are a professional representation of them, in print form. Coordinated our publishing resources (editorial, graphic, research and mailing/distribution) in a such a way that our product is created and shipped in a timely manner. Created plans and execute strategies that ensure a continuing flow of prospects that become satisfied customers. I designed and deployed a company website. I successfully designed and implemented a relational database solution to manage client mailing lists totaling 24,000 records. Developed auxilliary creative services for oral surgery, orthodontic, dental, audiology and optometry practices.

1985-1995 Current Concepts, Inc. (Vancouver, WA) - Marketing Manager of this biomedical publishing company. This firm packaged medical content for practice education and promotion. I conceived, designed and executed artwork for direct mail campaigns to market our services to 4,000 oral surgeons and 6,500 orthodontists worldwide. Initial campaigns yielded incredible direct mail conversion-to-client rate of 2.8%. Managed seven employees and had primary responsibility for both editorial and product composition. Managed sales from this small company inception from zero
to annual level of $390,000. Foremost accomplishment was in persuading individual prospects of the value of promotional and educational campaigns and then to tailor a package to fit the needs of their practice.
