Garrett Marks
Rock Hill, South Carolina
Digital Marketing Specialist
"Most people are not given the opportunity to work within a medium they enjoy, but the chance to share that joy with others is truly rare."
"I’ve been a big believer in the power of the internet since the dark days of dial-up. Things are rapidly changing , that’s one facet that makes the medium exciting, yet the pace at which changes are occurring is no faster than humanity has moved at any time in our past development; we are just seeing the effects of those changes on larger scales in shorter time spans. With Yahoo, heraldonline.com and its expansive local network I can help my clients engage the audiences they want to engage, when and where they want to engage them. That is the very definition of marketing efficiency. A powerful local news and information source is something that will never be replaced because the content is just too suited to what drives us as a culture. You can engage your customers alongside the information they are seeking, going where the people already are, to reach them when your message matters."
