Brett Dierker

I am a digital marketer with agency and in-house experience as a workhorse, manager, and department director. I specialize in paid and organic search marketing campaign strategy, development, and optimization. I have hired, trained, and developed in-house PPC and SEO teams.

Today, I am the interim Director of Marketing for QualitySmith, Inc. - a web company that helps home owners find contractors, contractors find more customers. I am responsible for a 13 person (4 sub-department) team of exceptional individuals in Portland, Oregon. We are power users of Marin Software, BrightEdge, Google Analytics, Visual Website Optimizer, ModxCMS, and Microsoft Excel. I work closely with our paid search manager, and I report directly to our President.

I adore digital marketing because of the people, the challenges, and the potential returns. All day long, all I do is look for opportunities to solve complex problems with intelligent, hilarious, and extraordinarily unique individuals. Aside from ROI/ROAS targets, I measure success by how well I balance optimization and maintenance with testing and experimentation.

I grew up in Southern California and went to college in Washington state. I currently live in Portland, Oregon, where I play musical instruments every day and kick soccer balls on the weekend. I watch a ton of basketball, and proudly own two Portland Trail Blazer Season Ticket Access Cards (they couldn't print out tickets this year due to the lockout).
