Ryan Mendenhall’s Summary

I have been an entrepreneuer for several years now, always have been one at heart. I have gained managing experience, have learned how to delegate and follow up. I am knowledgable in Internet Marketing. I can spot "black hat" tactics and I enjoy engaging in new mediums to further sales goals. I've done pay-per-click campaigns for large companies who spend $10k + a month and have kept them within budget. I have run affiliate programs with Commission Junction. I have managed a long term search engine positioning campaign with very positive results, taking a client from no rankings in on the first page of the major search engines to the first page for over 50 of their important keywords. I love people and am excited for all my future possibilities.
