I-Connect007 is pleased to announce that Brittany Martin has joined our sales and marketing team, effective July 22, 2024. Brittany brings a wealth of experience from her most recent role as a marketing coordinator for IPC/WHMA. In her new position, she will focus on elevating I-Connect007’s brand awareness and spearheading innovative marketing initiatives to strengthen partnerships within the electronics industry.
“We are thrilled to welcome Brittany to the I-Connect007 family! Her enthusiasm and positive energy make her a great addition to our team, and her expertise will be invaluable to both our internal and external marketing strategies,” said Barb Hockaday, I-Connect007’s business development manager.
Residing in Chicago, Brittany is an avid runner and dog walker and enjoys spending time outdoors with her husband and three children. She has a diverse background, having spent much of her career in higher education, where she taught persuasive writing at colleges and universities nationwide.
Prior to IPC, she successfully led the marketing department of a large screen printing company. Under her leadership, the company’s brand awareness surged, and sales doubled within two years.
With a strong grasp of the power of social media in today’s marketing landscape, Brittany is always exploring creative ways to promote partnerships and enhance customer engagement.
"Marketing is essential," Brittany emphasized. "The majority of partnership decisions are made before a company ever speaks to a sales representative. A strong marketing strategy will instantly demonstrate why I-Connect007 is the ideal partner."
Brittany is excited about collaborating with the I-Connect007 team, traveling, and creating new opportunities while fostering long-term partnerships.
