Recommendations
Below is a sampling of some of the recommendations I’ve received from previous clients and managers for my work as a marketing professional.
Carol is an independent thinker with a thorough knowledge of the marketing discpline. She is exceptionally adept at integrating technology with marketing, particularly in the area of direct response. Most importantly, she understands the importance of ROI and measurement in the marketing process. A dedicated worker and team player, Carol Knox is an outstanding marketer with a strong future.
– Al Crisafulli (former manager at Suburban Propane)
I worked with Carol while she was a marketing manager in the home office at Suburban Propane and I was a field sales manager. I found Carol to be extremely sensitive to field needs, always going out of her way to help and support me in any way possible. She is a software genius with the patience of a saint when working with and teaching others in the realm of database management.
– Jody Pugh (former internal client at Suburban Propane)
I found Carol’s work to be of exceptional integrity and creativity. She had a great rapport with our clients and an in-depth knowledge of the resolutions needed to solve any problems with which she was presented. Her work was meticulous and she could conceive and produce any program even if she was given the barest of details.
– Suzanne Hoffman (former manager at Applix)
Carol serves in multiple roles within home office marketing, but a principal one is facilitating electronic communications … on behalf of three strategic business units and corporate administration…
Carol works closely with the business to establish advance schedules, but many times, on short notice, she has managed multiple unplanned requests to satisfy various constituents.
As a former internal customer, I found that one of Carol’s strongest attributes is avoiding “no, we can’t” in favor of “we have a few challenges, but let’s figure out how.” This made her a solid resource to call upon on numerous occasions and provided great peace of mind to her customers.
– Pete Spicer (former internal client at Chubb)
