Carl LaFlamme’s Summary
As President of Spider Marketing LLC, a web media company, I'm responsible for directing the company's growth. I oversee all advertising and business development, as well as serving as Creative Director and Project Manager.
Prior to launching Spider Marketing in 2001, I was a national-award winning advertising executive with over 20 years experience in traditional advertising and marketing. I also have over 15 years experience in direct sales and network marketing and over 10 years experience in internet marketing and website development.
My experience includes V.P.of Marketing for EWRX where I spearheaded the development of marketing programs and online initiatives for several automotive websites.
As an advertising copywriter, I was a recipient of numerous advertising awards including a Clio and National Addy. I created successful advertising campaigns for Fortune 500 clients like Frito-Lay, Century 21, Pepsi Bottling Group, as well as smaller regional clients like Big Brothers, Big Sisters of Canada, InterFirst Bank, and the Dallas Morning News.
I am also an author of two eBooks, one on Internet Marketing, the other on Network Marketing Training and I'm a part-time blogger. For the last 15+ years, my wife Suzanne and I have developed, trained and supported a successful nationwide direct sales and network marketing group of home based entrepreneurs.
