Event Canceled – Increase Your Marketing ROI by nearly 200% with Targeted Data and Content

Event Cancellation Notice

Thank you so much for your interest in our Summer Marketing Camp. Sadly we have to cancel the event at this time. We’ll be sure to let you know should we reschedule for a later date.

We’re hosting a happy hour summer camp for adults with RopeSwing to bring together local panelist Mike Paradis, Founder and CEO of Demand Chain, Susan Rylance, VP of Growth at Fahren, and our newest panelist Robert Casserly, Founder and CEO of RopeSwing and Agency Underground. They will share some best practices and experiences with using targeted data and content in their go to market strategies. The discussion will be moderated by Roger Fuhrman, Sales & Marketing Executive Consultant.

The B2B buying process continues to change every year. Having accurate contact data to fuel your sales machine is more essential than ever. Once you have that information you then need target content and messaging to reach those decision makers and a stellar creative team to break through the noise.

About Mike Paradis

Mike Paradis is a nationally recognized entrepreneur known for his expertise in business-to-business sales, marketing, service excellence and channel management. As a consultant, Mike worked with Cargill for 10 years on customer-centric projects and formed a partnership with Cargill’s founding family, the MacMillans, who shared his vision for creating the first consulting services company (BenNevis) dedicated solely to increasing the growth and profitability of businesses by providing a strategic customer-centric framework. As a natural extension of that CRM strategy work, Mike founded Demand Chain in 2001 to focus exclusively on CRM implementations. Initially platform agnostic, Demand Chain is now dedicated to the Salesforce CRM platform. As one of the Midwest region’s premier Salesforce Gold Partners, Demand Chain has successfully completed over 1,000 projects, helping hundreds of customers drive better business results through customizing their Salesforce platform.

Mike was previously executive vice president of GE’s Customer Relationship Solutions Division, where he helped build and lead their CRM system integration organization of 80 consultants.
