Despite the economic slowdown (if that's what we are still calling it), Hodgson's business has been increasing nicely, thanks to the efforts of our Marketing Team. Since these folks have been calling on you (probably multiple times) to talk about our services, I thought it would be good to introduce them.

Garry Sittig, Chief Marketing Officer, is responsible for the overall sales and marketing direction of hodgsonConsulting.  An information technology industry veteran, he's worked with everything from start-ups to multi-billion dollar organizations. Garry's technical knowledge, combined with his experience in sales and sales management make him a tremendous asset to our clients. He is expert at diagnosing clients' challenges and determining if there is a fit with Hodgson's services. Garry's also an avid golf and tennis player.

Karen Rosen is that rare (and extremely valuable) marketing find - someone who enjoys making cold calls. She's had over 20 years experience building client relationships and brings her enthusiasm and expertise to Hodgson as a member of our sales team. Karen has a tremendous ear - she'll take the time to really understand a prospect's current situation and future needs before assessing if Hodgson can offer a solution. Karen also embodies Hodgson's service philosophy in her spare time. In addition to hobbies of reading, gardening and genealogy research, she is currently raising money for the Women Build project at Habitat for Humanity of Montgomery County.

So, the next time one of these folks calls you - I hope you'll take the call. They promise not to waste your time, but if you'll give them a few minutes, you'll find they are expert at getting to know your company and its pain points, and assessing how Hodgson's services can provide a solution.
