colleen reilly’s Summary

Marketing professional with 15+ years of experience, 10+ online. I've spent time as a strategic consultant, worked at a direct marketing firm, and then moved over to the company side (at Yahoo!) for 4+ years in both marketing and product management roles. Most recently I'm at method products, overseeing most direct-to-consumer communications. Interesting challenges + products/services that surprise and delight consumers = the key to my work happiness.

colleen reilly’s Specialties:

Proficiencies include strategic consulting, direct and database marketing, product marketing, advertising, customer contact strategy, market research, and project and agency management. Vertical experience in the software, Internet, consumer packaged goods, financial services, and media and entertainment industries. Relentless user and consumer advocate. Things I like: Great products, smart marketing, delighted customers. Things I don’t: Red tape, turf wars, making the same mistake twice.
