MerchantCircle

From 2007-2011, I managed MerchantCircle’s content creation, working directly with “merchants” (local business owners) to produce quality profile content and search engine optimization (SEO).

It's like MySpace meets Yellow Pages. In 2007, that's how we described MerchantCircle.com. Since then, it has grown to become the largest social networking site dedicated to local businesses.

Key Responsibilities

• Jack of all trades, working cross-functionally with the engineering, operations, and marketing teams.

• As the company's first intern, I took the lead on innovative campaigns geared at enhancing community engagement and customer service.

• As full-time content editor, I worked directly with merchants to create custom content and improve search engine optimization (SEO).
