For over a decade the team at Hawthorne Search has worked in the local search space. During this time the industry has evolved from a print medium, moving to online advertising and now we are seeing mobile become the dominant platform.
While the local search business has evolved, our efforts to service the community at large have not. We have attended and spoken at dozens of industry events including BIA/Kelsey, Local Search Association and IAB events.
Robert Hawthorne and his team have been called on to consult with start ups in the space, devising compensation plans, developing long term recruiting strategies and ultimately building teams for these entities.
Our contacts range from companies like Yellow Book, Yellowpages.com, Citysearch, Yahoo, Google, Shoplocal and dozens of others across North America and Europe.
There is no typical search but here are some of the projects we have filled in recent years:
Chief Executive Officer-Publisher
Chief Operating Officer-International Publisher
President-Digital Agency
Vice President of Product Marketing-Local Search Start Up
Vice President of National Sales-Publisher
Vice President of Sales-Local Search Leader
Community Manager- Local Search Company
Sales Representative- Over 100 filled in 2010-2011
