Mathew Sweezey’s Summary

I have a strong sales back ground and started with selling Cannon Copiers. My passion has always been in marketing and sales. To me both are very intertwined. I believe David Oglivy said it best when he said " I don't want somebody to see my advertisement and say, it's creative. I want them to see it and be so compelled by it that they go out and buy the product."

Currently work for Pardot helping companies sell more effectively and nurture their leads in a more effective way.
