Dave Hendricks’s Summary

In addition to domain expertise in Interactive Marketing, Social Media and email, I have extensive experience in building, re-tooling and top-grading all types of business operations, including client services, technology and sales. Implementing and customizing Salesforce.com for the particular needs of organization - not just sales - is a passion of mine and I have worked with their product since 2000. Building and managing collaborative organizations is something that I find challenging and rewarding.

I like people more than machines.

At Datran I am leading an effort to organize the company's various units to provide a seamless client service and operations experience. At ARGI, I worked with the CEO and BOD to raise capital and make strategic acquisitions. While with Donnelley Marketing, I successfully completed a re-staffing of two regions from top to bottom and created and staffed two new business development functions. At CheetahMail I reengineered the sales and marketing function and made the critical hires who are leading the company today.

I have extensive re-engineering, strategy design experience and balanced scorecard implementation skills. I am a metrics-driven leader that enjoys getting into the fray, but letting people do their jobs.
