Penny Hagerman’s Summary

I am experienced in every step of the publishing process, including proofreading, writing, editing and final proof and production.

I've produced marketing materials, books and magazines, and have worked several years as an Internet writer and editor, mastering several content management systems along the way.

The past two years I've enjoyed and become skilled at Internet advertising (paid search), and have set up and managed many online advertising campaigns, each earning hundreds of dollars per day.

My most recent experience includes creation and management of new affiliate accounts. Functioning as affiliate manager in a support role, I now personally manage approximately 150 affiliate accounts and act as support in over 6,000 more.
