As a SEO and Content Growth Strategist originally from California with 10 years of experience in digital marketing, I'm passionate about designing high-growth strategies that prioritize content, UX, and performance. For me, optimal results stem from pairing data-driven insights with the art of creation to deliver content that drives business outcomes. Outside of work and family, I dedicate my time to the sport of ultra and trail running. In 2022, I completed the 100-km CCC at the UTMB World Series Final held in Chamonix, France. Before that, I finished my first 100-mile event at Doi Inthanon by UTMB in Chiang Mai, Thailand. Currently, I've taken back to the roads as I'm working to qualify for the Boston Marathon. I'm always looking for ways to push boundaries, build relationships, and leave a positive impact with the people I meet. At the end of the day, my goal is to create a positive ripple effect and use every opportunity to grow–both personally and professionally. I'm always open to connecting, so feel free to reach out to me here on LinkedIn!

I have been selling my whole life. A few brief stints in the technical department or the back office but most of my time has been spent "customer-facing" and doing deals. Currently, as co-founder of Gap Wireless a leading product distributor for the mobile broadband and test & measurement equipment markets, I have over three decades of experience in sales, with thousands of hours in the field or on the phone with customers and working with salespeople and the entire management group to help start, build, and grow several massively successful companies.

Owner and CEO of multi-award winning agency Purechannels: The Channel Agency, helping vendors, distis and partners across the world to transform their channel activity. NLP and Hypnosis Practitioner, pursuer of excellence, life lover, unrelenting smile-maker and immovable optimist, driving change through the Channel and side-hustling my way through the global football market, I invented the RESPONSEBALL - a football that provides unpredictable and irregular movement in flight and on the ground, so it's great for goalkeeper training, co-ordination, reactions, motor-skill development and also just for a bit of good old fashioned fun in the garden or as part of a training session. I am also Honorary President of the 'Glenn Robertson Academy Gambia' which provides opportunity, hope and inclusion through football, keeping children off the streets and offering them an alternative to drugs and crime in Gambia. Marketer, creator, inventor, brainworker, talker, presenter, networker, and innovator, I am encouraged, motivated and inspired everyday by my two little girls and what lies ahead for them. I like to be nice. And despite what some teachers might say, I am also perfectly comfortable using the word nice. I own more pairs of shoes than my wife because I believe that shoes are important. They help people and people are really important! I start the day with a cup of tea and then move onto coffee. twitter: @pureglenn and @purechannels
