Comments:
This hot spot of 170x60 pix on the corporate site of Hermes Phone, had been used for every promotion, event or piece of information the company had to pass to customers and visitors. Although the spot is extremely annoying for every designer because of its mini size I have changed maybe a little less than hundred banners there for my 2 years as marketing manager of the company. I am thankful for the exquisite work of my designer by that time for most of these. But to keep the public updated with every project I was up to I had to make a good 20-30 of them by myself. I admit - they all had to keep the corporate look of the company, but still I did play with some funny ideas as the beat of the megaphones, the “stretching” phone talks for the “long” weekend, the cut in half rates (literally) for Christmas or the rates that are so low that make you bent under the table :)
Creativity
Graphic design and visual art have always been part of who I am. From the first crayon sun on the wall to the latest web site, banner or camera shot – they all represent my zest for versatile, colorful, vibrant life
Professionalism
Marketer by education, profession and mindset I believe the good research and analyses lead to good planning and results. And then there is the full array of communication channels to present, inform and educate - from the dynamic search engine marketing and social media optimization to the simple but mandatory business card
Precision
The web will never stop amazing me - its richness, its limitlessness, its diversity. My jealousy for the developers being part of this magic has had a fair influence on my HTML, CSS, XML and even action script skills. But being much closer to the business world my contribution has always been limited to the web content management – its accuracy, its sufficiency, its visualization and its detailed representation
