About Ken Stampe:

My tradeshow vendor experience began in 1995 as a manufacturer's representative in the shoe industry. I was responsible for all exhibit decisions at regional events in my territory and had to show acceptable ROI for each sponsorship.

As a Regional Sales Mgr. for IndyMac Bank., we sponsored events at smaller regional or state-wide events in addition to national, industry-wide affairs. I learned successful booth sales and networking skills and how to maximize sponsorship dollars while at an event.

From 2005 I was 100% responsible for lead generation and marketing. My marketing and branding knowledge advanced with the progression of Web 2.0, social networking, blogging and other technologies as they became available. In 2007, 62% of my closed business was sourced from my on-line marketing efforts.

With the challenges of the financial and mortgage sector in 2008, I acted on the opportunity to work full-time in marketing and branding with Parks Associates. It is my endeavor to create high-value and high ROI sponsorship packages for our partners. I look forward to being in the consumer electronics industry and especially feel at home in the digital living field as I've been a major consumer for many years.
