Why Us?
eMotiv Marketing was formed by three heavily engaged political operatives who all bring something different to the table.
Eric Linder:
Eric Linder has 13 years of marketing expertise. He is a media consultant for the Orange County Register, and has developed web strategies for companies since the mid nineties.
Eric is a pioneer of social media campaigns. He was one of the first to integrate social media into political websites at the inception of Web 2.0 (yes even before Obama did it). He has developed many effective scripts and websites that make reaching supporters simple and efficient.
83% of the campaigns that have Eric on their team have gone on to win their elections. Some of Eric’s recent work includes JoinBrad.com and JoinVanTran.com.
