“Dennis Carpenter helped me turn digital advertising prospects into customers. In his role as E-Media Sales manager, Dennis educated me – as well as the rest of our sales staff and our customers – on the benefits of digital advertising. Dennis worked with the sales staff to analyze customer needs and recommend digital advertising solutions that our customers would buy. Last year Dennis hosted a series of educational online advertising webinars for Advanstar customers and sales staff that was very helpful to all involved and brought new customers on board. Dennis possesses tremendous knowledge of the industry and is a great asset on sales calls. Advanstar launched many new products that Dennis helped articulate to sales staff and customers.” April 23, 2009

“Advanstar Automotive Aftermarket Group has been transforming from a print magazine company to complete communications with print, digital and event marketing resources. As E Media Sales Manager Dennis was tasked with providing new advertising sales opportunities in our digital newsletters, news alerts, digital magazine editions, web portal placements, vertical search sponsorships and training webinars. Dennis organized our product portfolios and provided added value digital packages that continue to provide an increasing revenue stream in a tough print market. Dennis provided analysis and measurement of our digital programs to advertisers and was a great asset across the table in personal sales calls. His understanding of digital products has been a lifesaver for our staff. He was instrumental in landing a webinar for one of our clients and got the ball rolling in a variety of new product packages that are just now beginning to bear fruit.” April 20, 2009

“I had the privilege of working with Dennis in Advanstar’s Auto Aftermarket Group for approximately one year. Dennis was always extremely helpful in not only explaining e-advertising (products, benefits, statistics, etc). to the sales force, but also in translating this information into effective, useful sales packages. He is hard-working, team-oriented, and willing to share professional advice, which I personally benefited from often. I highly recommend Dennis to any future employer.” April 11, 2009

“Dennis and I worked together at Stamtas Business Media. Dennis handled e-media sales and provided technical direction for my publication. Always available to help, Dennis went out of his way to not only recommend new e-media marketing opportunities but educate me personally on what the features and benefits were of the products he was recommending. In public forums, Dennis was the ultimate e-media sales representative. He always approached customers with a desire to understand their business first and then make recommendation of how he could help them achieve their web objectives. He never came across as a “sales guy” pushing bells and whistles. Dennis was exceptionally pleasant to work with, never too busy for my questions or to discuss a new idea. He brought an insight into customer needs that is unusual in such a tech-savvy professional. I would eagerly work with Dennis again.” December 29, 2008
