Hi, I'm Lee!

 Lee JorgensonMy name is Lee Jorgenson.  As an Account Manager for Compendium, I get to work with many great companies ranging from large enterprises to small ma' and pa' shops.  Spending so much time helping my clients with their online marketing strategies, I get to witness great online marketing successes...and the occasional hard but educational failures as well.  I'll be sure to keep you updated on great programs that I'm working on and lessons learned along the way so you can glean from them too.

Along with strategic-level tips, I'll be sure to share my latest tactical Google Analytics findings.  Yes, I'm a huge nerd and LOVE online tracking.  Analytics nerds, hit me up with your latest tips and tricks!

Last but certainly not least, I am a real person and love people.  As a father, husband, and Christ-follower, I cherish the relationships I have with those around me, and I love engaging in meaningful dialogue about topics outside of marketing.  So don't hesitate to hit me up on a variety of topics at ljorgenson at compendium dot com or on my website: Lee Jorgenson.
