Welcome

Are you kidding me? Why not EcoCart? 

We align well. We both believe in busting through the status-quo and making things easier for people.

It would be awesome to join the EcoCart team. I need to work with people who are passionate about making a meaningful impact.

"We're on a mission to make the fight against climate change easy, accessible, and affordable for everyone!"

"...looking for a Creative Director who is motivated by building products that will help change the world. We're growing quickly, and want you to grow with us!" 

I’m looking to work for a company that puts an emphasis on its people, values creative, values its brand, and focuses on empowering and improving the lives of everyone they come in contact with.

I need to be a part of a team that believes in who they are, what they do, and why they do it. EcoCart is the team I’m looking for.

And based on what your job post states, I’m who you are looking for. 

I'm glad you asked. 

I'm an empathetic leader, problem solver, creative director, strategist, designer, and creative thinker. I specialize in expressing and communicating the heart and soul of the brand-resulting in powerful connections.

I think differently. This ability enables me to identify, approach, and solve problems in unique, fresh, and meaningful ways, resulting in work that matters. I believe in the power of ideas, true collaboration, and the strength of people.  

I have an entrepreneurial spirit. This mindset enables me to identify opportunities, and solve problems in unexpected ways that many people may overlook.

I have a unique blend of creative vision and business sense. I possess a rare combination of leadership qualities, creativeness, strategic thinking, and talent. I see challenges as opportunities and solve problems holistically. I envision the big-picture, and also have the ability to dive into the details.

I choose courage over comfort. I value simple over complex, clarity over sneaky, boldness over unadventurous, and growth over complacency.

I will help EcoCart deliver impactful, meaningful and seamless end-to-end brand experiences through, collaboration, strategy, storytelling, and purposeful design that engages people and motivates them to action.

I will help EcoCart bring their mission and story to life by taking an empathetic "reasons to believe" approach that would enable us to relate to the audience in meaningful ways.

I will help EcoCart continually explore the edges of brand expression to memorably impact culture. I have a vast amount of experience, and an exceptionally high standard of brand design practice.

I will help EcoCart create clarity, build brand awareness, and get people curious about how working with EcoCart will positively impact their work lives, which in turn affects their personal lives–as well as how their adoption and use of EcoCart will greatly, and positively impact the success of their organization.


I will help EcoCart drive results.

My 7.5 years experience working in supply chain software (SaaS) marketing would be beneficial to EcoCart. I have done a lot of work regarding sustainable concepts/messaging as well. 

I work to deliver experiences that:

• are diverse and inclusive
• are thought-provoking
• tell a story
• take the audience on a journey
• build brand awareness and brand loyalty
• convert viewers into brand enthusiasts
• drive the "reasons to believe"
• deliver results 

I have extensive experience leading, providing creative direction, ideating, concepting, creating, collaborating, and executing work that’s thoughtful, sophisticated, dynamic, human-centered, concept-led, and memorable.

I approach B2B and B2C marketing the same way because they aren’t that different. We are all people. I call it H2H (human-to-human). We are all looking for the emotional benefits we receive from a product, service, and/or experience. I always keep the reasons to believe (emotional benefits) top of mind. After all, companies don’t work with companies–people work with people. Companies don’t buy products and/or services–people do.

 My vast experience includes brand awareness, product awareness/launch campaigns (and other brand/company initiatives), as well as countless one-to-one, one-to-few, and one-to-many integrated marketing campaigns targeting the retail industry, logistics, manufacturing, and digital transformation campaigns. I've also delivered numerous ABM campaigns, as well as "optimize your ecommerce" campaigns.

An example of how I think: When I started at JDA Software I was told “Supply chain isn’t sexy and can’t be.” I responded, “I disagree. We can make it sexy because the idea of what supply chain enables is sexy, so let’s talk about that.” 

I focused on JDA's customers' end users (the consumer) on numerous retail campaigns. I put the "pain points" and/or "emotional benefits" on display.

Focusing on the end user in the early stages helped plant the seed that JDA/Blue Yonder understood their own customers by showing that they understood their customers, customers'. This approach proved to be very powerful and effective. 

I believe people are the heart and soul of every brand/company.

I work to build up, nurture, and inspire. Leadership is a mindset. Being a leader is not something a person does, it's who they are.

I believe the work a person has done in the past is important, but who they are as a person, and what they are capable of doing in the right environment, is more important. What a person values, how they think, behave, support, and interact is what separates leaders from bosses. I set others up for success, jump in when needed, and get out of my team’s way when needed :-)

I’m not afraid to:

• Be myself
• Let others be themselves
• Be open
• Elevate others
• Listen
• Ask questions
• Learn
• Help others grow 
• Change my mind
• Admit when I’m wrong 
• Admit what I don’t know (but will find out)
• Seek out experts 
• Ask for help
• Explore possibilities 
• Experiment 
• Be bold
• Jump in to help and get my hands dirty
• Kick status in the quo

Brand and brand systems are also specialties of mine.

I will lead, conceptualize and collaborate to develop the creative design and execution of EcoCart's visual communications across the organization's internal and external facing marketing and brand objectives.

I will provide EcoCart's internal teams with design standards, tools, and guidance on communicating corporate image, solutions, branding, and identity with consistency and quality across mediums.

I will collaborate to build design models and templates that are adaptable, agile, scalable, extendable, and repeatable.

I will streamline production and workflows enabling creative teams to deliver efficiently and effectively, while ensuring assets are on-brand and well designed.

“I loved that he could help us be edgier (and get noticed) while staying true to our brand.” – Christie Blake.

I have also created numerous brands from the ground up.

• I want to continue to grow and learn as a leader and a creative, while helping others do the same.
• I want to help create breakthrough work that matters.
• I want to inspire, encourage, and motivate myself and others to be better, push the boundaries, think bigger, and achieve more. And have some fun along the way. 
• I want to help build an environment where people can be successful and thrive. An environment where people feel empowered and safe to express themselves; share their ideas, talents, and concerns; feel safe to experiment and make mistakes; feel valued and appreciated as individuals. 

I envision EcoCart fitting into this based on who you say you are, your commitment, and the vibe I get from your job post and website. 

Instead of just telling people my ethos, I believe in showing them. Showing proves something. I live my values, and show them through collaboration, work, action, and leadership.

I’d appreciate the opportunity to show you.

I hope I get the opportunity to chat with you as I deeply believe I'm the person you are looking for. 

Thank you for your time and consideration.
