Charles McEnerney [charlie@wellroundedradio.net]’s Experience

Consultant/Freelancer + seeking a new opportunity

Social Media + Web Marketing

(Privately Held; 1-10 employees; Online Media industry)

October 2007 — Present (8 months)

Over the past eight years, I've been using the web to market products and services to consumers. In addition to my work hosting + producing Well-Rounded Radio and marketing it to users around the world, I've developed a deep well of knowledge about web marketing, including viral video, audio + video podcasts, adwords, SEM/SEO, analytics, e-mail marketing, re-designs + re-launches, blogs, social networking, banner advertising, e-commerce, wikis, microblogging, mobile promotions, and...whatever's next...to engage consumers with brands.

Even though we are still in the early days of this kind of interactivity, we've already seen how these technologies can engage current customers--and attract new ones--with a new level of "honest" marketing and community-building along with fostering relationships with your customers that goes well beyond just marketing "to" them.

Working with clients in the software, consumer product, media, design, and education industries.
