Cheryl Draper
Marketing Event Manager of STAT Search Analytics
Originally hailing from Ottawa ON but now based in Vancouver BC, Cheryl has spent the better part of the last 16 years as a champion for building community. Cheryl brings broad experience, knowledge, professionalism and emotional intelligence to all of her roles. Today, Cheryl is Marketing Events Manager for STAT Search Analytics tasked with leading their international sponsorship and events efforts to help grow lead-gen opportunities and brand awareness among search professionals. Previously, Cheryl was the Sponsorship & PR Manager at Unbounce where she led startup programming, PR, community events, sponsorships and offline engagement.

Cheryl was responsible for business development and client services for the Ottawa Senators NHL franchise for a number of years uncovering an opportunity to build and launch Boxseat Suite Management as a niche SaaS tool to automate the corporate sales cycle for sports venues, increasing revenue and reducing churn year over year. Early on, Cheryl spent time working as a freelancer and with several leading agencies managing web and print projects for clients such as Cacao Camino Chocolate and Microsoft gaining a deep understanding of the importance of building lasting relationships with her clients, and how to communicate with creative colleagues.

Julia Vyse
Senior Manager – Enterprise Performance Media of Mediative
I’m a Search Strategist with Mediative. I’ve been doing search strategy for nearly a decade and I’m excited about the new ways in which we reach one another – apps, video, shopping, and the way online and offline behaviors merge and work together. Ask me about climbing the rock wall of search for Pharma and the PABS rules that come with that, search for government agencies with three year budget limitations, Health orgs and their restrictions, bilingual campaigns, retailers who don’t do ecomm, and search for companies whose industry vertical doesn’t exist yet!

Over the past 12-months I have built the company from scratch, designed the website, acquired the technology, established a substantial business network across major platforms and negotiated reciprocal referral associations with other services companies. Most recently I have added additional services by entering into these Reciprocal Referral Associations with Company principals and I now offer a full suite of business development services. These include Business Planning, Mobile App’s, Web Design, S.E.O., Reputation Video Marketing, Legal Services and Identity Theft Protection and most recently Crowd Funding. I am now in a position where in order to launch I require a modest investment to cover my expenses for the first 6-months until I can establish a profitable and growing company.
