I’m going to break away from my typical “we” point of view blogging style for a moment and tell you about the people I’ve been blessed to work with since joining WSI Smart Marketing. WSI Smart Marketing is owned by the Kelly family. If you are looking for internet marketing specialists in Santa Rosa and Sonoma County and you want to hire a company filled with truly good people, I can wholeheartedly recommend them.
The Team
First, there’s Ryan. Ryan Kelly is often a business owner’s first contact with WSI. I rarely see him sitting down, and he is great at coming up with a plan of action for whatever situation his client is in. He’s a much-sought-after internet marketing speaker who started his career with the Yellow Pages but quickly realized that internet marketing was the future. Fun fact! He loves throwing parties and charity events and has even organized a charity poker tournament.
Then there’s Ken. Ever calm, Ken Kelly has done it all. He started as a high school teacher, which in my opinion proves he can do anything. Later, he co-founded the number one blood bank technology and automation company Immucor. One of his proudest moments was receiving a plaque from the Governor of Washington for starting a Big Brother’s Club, through which his high school football players mentored a young boy throughout the year. He loves working with his family at WSI. More importantly, he brings me my paycheck.
Judy Kelly is Director of Production here at WSI Smart Marketing. Her background in interior design and as a freelance deposition reporter was the perfect prelude to a career in web design and content. She believes that the conscious use of color inspires us and enhances our lives. Her advanced education in English and her deposition reporting on every topic from plumbing to neurosurgery prepared her for providing our clients with perfect grammar and punctuation. In fact, I hope she doesn’t read this! Fun facts about Judy—she enjoys listening to Christian radio on her way to and from work, and she’s a news junky.
Brandon Kelly rounds out this family of internet marketing specialists in Santa Rosa. He makes computer-related phone calls that sound like gibberish to me. I don’t understand anything he says until “their site is ready.” He says that his many years at WSI have been incredible because working with his family is fantastic and working with the clients is a joy. He says his job gives him such a sense of accomplishment. Fun fact: Brandon learned to juggle from a YouTube video. He juggles a lot of responsibilities at work, too.
And alas, meet me – Cynthia Mordecai. The only non-Kelly family member of the WSI Smart Marketing team (but I feel adopted, which I love!). Not all of our clients hire us to write ongoing blog entries, but when they do, they get me! I also provide all the fun, at times hard-to-read reporting, and communicate with clients on a daily basis. I’m a recent graduate of Sonoma State University, School of Business and Economics with a Business degree in Marketing. I enjoy traveling to new counties, attending sporting events, and spending time with family and friends. To me, nothing beats a good ol’ BBQ with good weather, good music, and good company.
