Feb 24, 2020

Cherise Kennerley has been President of ROI Marketing since 2001. Prior to running ROI Marketing, she held a variety of successful executive-level sales and marketing roles within various companies working with advertising and public relations agencies. This led ROI Marketing to grow organically focusing its attention primarily on mid-sized to large companies searching for marketing, sales and business solutions that are tailored to meet the goals of the client in a cost-effective way and as result companies on average retain ROI Marketing for 9+years.

 

In this episode, Cherise talks about how she was able to “Flip the Script” in her 2nd Half utilizing her past Sales and Marketing background into running her own successful Marketing Agency.

 

“There's only one thing holding you back is just yourself. You just got to go out there and you just have to start doing it. I started formulating our ROI Marketing when I was still in corporate, I knew what I liked, I knew what I didn't like and you just have to put it out there.”
