My story so far
I joined Ting Mobile in 2013 and played a pivotal role in helping grow the business from 30K to 300K subscribers (while becoming one of the top rated carriers by Consumer Reports) before its sale to Dish Network.
I scaled social channels by over 450% and built a thriving community of brand advocates (including launching /r/ting), while creating content that converted, retained, and resonated, spanning blogs, videos, LPs, social campaigns and more.
After my second promotion, I took the reigns of our influencer program, ultimately driving 550M+ impressions and 70K+ customer adds. I also built Ting’s gaming presence from scratch, securing partnerships with Blizzard, Twitch, and Corsair—earning coverage on ESPN, Reddit’s front page, and all across the biggest esports stages in the world.
Later, I stepped into a broader growth role, boosting Meta ad conversions by 330%, testing with new ad platforms/partners, managing strategic partnerships, and leading communications for major customer migrations.
In 2022, I moved to Ting Internet to lead marketing communications, developing a cross-channel strategy across 20+ markets, driving product marketing efforts, managing a growing team, and supporting PR, brand, and campaign work.
Currently, I’m working part-time with trophi.ai, helping develop the go-to-market strategy for game expansions, shaping product, brand, performance, and community direction.
Recommendations
"Jesse is such a talented and passionate multi-disciplined marketer.
He's full of a million fantastic creative ideas but has the skills and perspective to make them come to life -- in copy, in tools, in social activities. I don't know many people who can skillfully jump from brand strategist to copy editor to product marketer to web architect to keeping the energy of the team high in a staff meeting to teaching someone the nuances of a CRM system to explaining the cultural norms of Reddit within a 3 hour period in a work day, but Jesse is that person.
I would highly recommend Jesse for any role that connects ingenuity with customer empathy and nimbleness. Or really, any job where you need something done fast, right and creatively"
