More About Pete
People often talk about having an influential teacher who changed their career or passions. That is true for me; a teacher influenced my career, and one of his projects forever changed my career trajectory. I was studying at Drake University (Go Bulldogs!) to get my MBA in Business Administration in 2008. The project involved starting a blog, buying a domain with my name and being more active in the “new” digital space. Looking back, I had no idea how influential that project would be, or that it would grow into a love for developing communities, brands and driving growth for organizations over the past 15 years.
Since then, I’ve grown brands in the SaaS, technology, services, and educational publishing spaces, focusing mainly on demand generation or growth marketing. I enjoy digging into the customer journey to ensure the user experience is as streamlined as possible, and profitable at the same time. I nerd out on analytics, especially those showcasing the success of the customer acquisition strategies I’ve had the opportunity to build.
When not digging into strategy and analytics, I spend as much time as possible with my wife and three children, either attending or coaching their respective sporting events.
Fun Facts
- Favorite Movie
- Heat. That rolling shooting scene is amazing! Plus, Pacino and DeNiro, come on!
- Favorite Adult Beverage
- Craft Beer. I tend to favor Iowa breweries, but that doesn’t keep me from consuming a good craft beer when I am not in the state.
- Who I’d Like to Have Dinner With (Live, Dead or Fictional)
- My Dad. We lost him too soon and I just want one more chance to hug him.
- Greatest Rock N Roll Album of All Time
- Okay, maybe not the greatest, but one I have just rediscovered: Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness by the Smashing Pumpkins
- Three Adjectives Describing Me
- Stoic. Optimistic. Authentic.
- Bucket List
- Eating pasta in Rome with my wife – maybe even slurping the same piece of pasta like in Lady and the Tramp.
- Favorite Website Functionality
- Live Chat or a chat bot. There is no better way to answer your prospect’s questions than with a well thought-out chat option. However, it also can be a double-edged sword if not enough thought has been put into it!
- What Age I’d Like to Live to
- Long enough to be able to see the adults my kids mature into, and to get to love on my grandchildren.
Seize the day. share the love.
