About Woody Stoudemire

I love the challenge of creatively packaging a complex product in a way that compels the audience to proceed through the sales cycle. For me, every day is different and seldom dull. I am curious about the psychology and science of marketing that changes with constantly evolving tactics and market tastes. My thirty+ year career has spanned old-school (outbound) and new-school (digital or inbound) marketing tactics. I enjoy the rush of creatively helping clients achieve greater brand awareness, sales, and profitability through strategic and creative efforts. It’s exciting to take the spark of an idea and work alongside a talented creative team to sculpt it into a visual concept that tells a compelling story.I am a non-linear thinker who lives to solve unique communications problems. Over the years, I have developed an understanding of what tactics and methodologies truly return marketing investment.Let me know how I can help you-Woody

Experience

1. Owner Consultant

   Marketingghost.Com

   Jan 2010 — Present

   Applying 30 years of strategic marketing experience as a part time or \"virtual\" marketing director for B2B and B2C clients. I work with a limited number of clients (4-5) in this capacity, usually averaging between 10 and 20 hours a month. Specialties include tourism, electrical cooperatives and manufacturing.MarketingGhost is extremely valuable to companies dependent on a National Sales Manager to also handle marketing, and those with a disorganized, reactive approach. My expertise and leadership are applied at the fraction of a cost of a full time marketing director.
