Hi there! I'm Jake 👋

"The ResearchGeek - On a Mission to Untangle Customer opinions for Businesses"

If you're looking for someone who can help you understand and connect with customers, you've come to the right place. With a passion for listening to people's stories, I found my calling in research during university. Since then, I've been fortunate to work with amazing clients, helping them to untangle the most complex parts of their businesses.

I'm also a blogger and content creator with my thoughts shared at Forbes, Advertising Week, Greenbook, MRS + many others. What started out as a way to get my foot in the door has turned into a platform for sharing my thoughts and opinions on the industry. 

When I'm not researching or creating content, you can find me on the global stage at events like Advertising Week New York and IBTM Barcelona, sharing my insights and ideas with industry professionals.

If you're interested in connecting over coffee and cake, that's a bonus in my book!

Online Learning Community (OLC) Student Researcher & Writer

As a marketer, here are the principles I believe in: 

⚡️ Trust: The best way to create demand is to build trust and affinity for your brand. And the best way to build both is to create content that educates, entertains, provokes, or provides everything in between. 

⚡️ Long-term view: Marketing is a long game. Avoid short term-ism at all costs. 

⚡️ Customer first: Everything you do needs to be in the service of the customer. 

⚡️ Truth: Never lie to your audience. Ever. 

⚡️ Agility: If you're not making mistakes, you're moving too slow. 

⚡️ Energy: Do everything with curiosity, creativity, and authenticity. 

A bit about me: A classic T-shaped marketer with experience in content, demand get, marketing automation, PR, and social media. A storyteller who's also comfortable with Excel sheets, HubSpot, Photoshop, Canva, Salesforce, Zapier, and other popular martech tools. 

HubSpot certified in Marketing Software and Content Marketing. 

If any of these sound interesting to you, or if you're simply curious and want to chat more, feel free to reach out. I am happy to connect with fellow marketers, market researchers/insight professionals, recruiters, sales pros, and really anyone who has interesting to say.
