Who I Am
Hi, I'm Kris Hammargren. For more than 20 years, I have been creating targeted campaigns in digital and traditional channels for a range of industries including financial services, higher education, e-commerce, publishing, and travel--with companies like AnchorBank, the University of Wisconsin-Madison, TwoPeasinaBucket.com, Book of the Month Club, and Quikbook.com.
Based in Madison, Wisconsin, I help companies grow their business by leveraging digital marketing and social media communications.
By working directly with companies like yours or consulting on a short-term basis, I will help you see the big picture and then think tactically to realize your goals. Together, we will leverage the latest tools and communication technologies to accelerate your marketing and exceed your targets.
