Nominee-tweet-stritch

Nominee's Achievements:

While Erica has been a member of the RAIN Group team for 11 years and has done some great things for our organization, she’s really become a force to be reckoned with over the last 5 years. She oversaw a website redesign that yielded a 1371% increase in website visits. The optimization of our website and Erica’s vision for transitioning to inbound marketing have lead to increases in other areas as well. RAIN Group’s corporate marketing list has seen an increase of 54% in the last few years, and our inbound leads have increased by 186%. We’ve also seen an increase of 23% of links ranking on the first page of search engine results. 

Nominee's Achievements in the Field of Sales Lead Management:

In addition to the achievements described above, Erica oversaw all content development and marketing and led numerous product and service launches for RainToday, resulting in revenue growth of over 500% in 3 years while significantly increasing margins. RainToday was closed in December 2015 due to shifting company priorities and strategies, not due to lack of performance.

She has received the following awards:
- 2011 Top 20 Women to Watch in Sales Lead Management
- Top Sales Resource Site for RainToday (2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014)
