Sam Spaulding

“Sam is a fantastic peer and I have been lucky to know her and work with her. It has been inspiring to attend brainstorming sessions with her as she understands our brand and customers so thoroughly. She possesses a can-do attitude and is always positive and upbeat. She is incredibly helpful and offers a lending hand wherever necessary, and is a true treasure to our team!”

“Sam is someone you want on your team and in your corner. Sam and I are both managers in the Marketing Department at Elements Brands and have collaborated individually, as well as in large groups, on many customer-facing projects. Strategizing with Sam means everything is covered- she’s always a step ahead, thinking through different issues that could arise, and having a solution quickly on hand. She consistently takes the initiative to learn the market and competitors of our brands in order to deliver the best SEO strategies possible. She’s a team player who thrives with interdepartmental communication and long-term brand strategies, making her an asset to any team. ”

“Sam is a master content marketer & SEO specialist who brings a variety of skills and experiences to the Natural Dog Company brand team from research & writing to UX designing. Her deep curiosity and pursuit of knowledge blended with her thoughtful approach to challenges make her the ultimate asset, as she's not afraid to dive head first into both qualitative and quantitative data and use it advantageously to guide owned media strategy. Through analyzing audience insights, Sam is able to consistently build and better customer experiences with the brand.”

“I was fortunate to work with Sam throughout her time at Elements Brands and witness her growth as a marketing whiz. She is a talented content writer, SEO analyzer, and even UX designer – truly a Jane of all trades. If there is something she doesn't know, she is always the first to say "I'll figure it out" and follow through with that promise. Sam incredibly capable, tenacious, and a joy to collaborate with, making her a great leader and coworker. Every meeting and brainstorm was made better with Sam in the room to challenge assumptions, provide creative solutions, and teach us all something along the way. It has been a joy to work with Sam and I cannot recommend her as a trusted colleague and employee enough.”

“I have been lucky enough to work with Sam for years, watching her grow professionally over the past 10 years. I’ve gone from working with her at a design firm to hiring her to design and develop for my company, and she has consistently delivered and exceeded expectations at every turn. She’s an exceptional designer who takes a strategic, holistic approach to her work, thinking beyond simply executing. She develops solutions, deftly manages projects from start to finish, and proactively solves problems to add value to every project. She’s collaborative, engaging, and willing to work with and lead teams to deliver stellar work. That, and she’s the kind of person you want to be around. Hard-working, driven to find solutions and support her team, and SMART. She just gets it, rooted in what seems to be an internal drive or ethos to make everything around her work (and look) better. ”

“Sam is an intelligent, creative, and innovative person and one of my favorite people that I've ever met. I've watched her wear many hats in her time with Anita Goodesign, but the most important thing to note is that she excels at everything she does. In her role as Director of Digital Media, she has worked hand-in-hand with myself and my team of designers to create engaging, fun, and effective marketing campaigns. Her no-nonsense approach to marketing projects lends to a very stream-lined and efficient design process. She has fantastic ideas for marketing proposals, and I have personally watched her juggle all of our back-end web-related needs while cranking out a multi-day marketing campaign at the same time. This person can do it all. She would make an invaluable addition to any team.”
