Walter has been very instrumental in developing our digital marketing program. He was thrown into a whirlwind operation and hit the ground running. He dove into learning two new programs Joomla and Hubspot, which were very foreign territory to him. If he doesn’t know it he goes out, learns, and applies his new found knowledge to the business. He is multi-talented in the digital marketing space from managing the back end of a web site to developing and testing landing pages while increasing SEO. Our whitepaper downloads have never looked so good. He has put a new feather in cap with the addition of Hubspot, a marketing automation tool, he learned how to assemble and put everything together in an exceptionally short period of time between four to six weeks, something unheard of in the Hubspot world. But we were in a hurry and we needed it up and operational and he succeeded. Walter is very open to all suggestions and is a great teacher in helping the team understand the various facets of digital marketing. He also sheds light on what he feels the team needs to focus on and never hesitates to ask questions or for help.

Source: LinkedIn Jacob Nuesser Dec 1, 2014You can get an idea of your competitor's organic search proficiency and their paid digital advertising by using SEMRush.com. This is an excellent tool for competitive research. Since they use a method of data collection that is different from a tool like Google Analytics, the numbers typically won't match exactly. But SEMRush.com will give you solid data from which you can make your own comparisons.
