Kristian Themstrup’s Summary
After graduating from the University of Maryland, College Park in 1998 with a Bachelors Degree in English, I left Philadelphia and traveled to the Seattle area to begin work. I started at Apria Healthcare as a billing consultant and through various promotions attained the position of Regional Revenue Qualification Supervisor for the Northwest Region. In this position, I managed all the government compliance activities for the NW branches and coordinated with the corporate office.
After more than 5 years in this position, I moved on to a local search engine optimization company to begin learning sales and internet marketing. At this company, I learned the ins and outs of direct sales, customer support, and the intriguing field of search engine optimization. Over my 3+ years employed here, I implemented and managed many optimization and marketing campaigns with significant results. During this time I learned everything I could about internet marketing while also managing a sales team that grossed over $1,000,000 in sales per year.
After that, I moved on to iePlexus, where I worked as the Director of Marketing. I was responsible for operating all internal and external marketing efforts for the company, and I also created and managed the entire web design and development department. I personally built the complete design portfolio for the company, which included many complex web and graphic projects. I also trained new sales and technical employees, managed the corporate identity, built the company website and blog, and ran about 10 or so additional online company properties.
Since then, I've moved on to provide web, graphic and marketing services through KristianThemstrup.com, so I can provide better personal service to my clients. I've got several partnerships that enable me to participate in various online companies and projects. I really love what I do and have big plans for the future.
