What Do Marketing Professionals Do?

Marketing professionals develop strategies to attract new business, grow a strong customer base and keep current clients.  Using the most up-to-date internet research tools, their expertise allows them to pinpoint marketing strategies on the exact customers they want to attract. Marketing professionals are creative, analytical, have great communication skills, and have a strong sense of teamwork. 

Nicole Schroeder is the Wired Production Group’s dedicated marketing professional.  She meticulously tracks our web traffic and keeps management informed on what is working well and what needs tweaking. It is with her expert guidance that we are able to plan and execute targeted marketing campaigns. Nicole has done an incredible job improving our website and our social media accounts.  It is with her guidance that we all get to celebrate things like “National Taco Day” or “National Jelly of the Month Club Day.” Because of her diligence, we never miss an opportunity to share a national celebration. On top of all that, her bright bubbly personality is our office’s welcoming presence, both on the phone and in-person. 

Nicole is a Cedar Rapids native.  2017 was a big year for her.  She joined the Wired Production Group team and then married Jacob Schroeder just two weeks later. Before joining the Wired Production Group team, Nicole worked for State Farm in Cedar Rapids. Outside of work, she is even busier than when she is at work.  She builds websites for local nonprofits and small businesses. She is currently the secretary of the Cleveland Area Neighborhood Association and she has been an active member of the Cedar Rapids Jaycees since 2015. She was recently named an ambassador for the City of Cedar Rapids through the Cedar Rapids Metro Economic Alliance. She also volunteers her time, treasure, and talents to Fur Fun Rescue, a foster-based dog rescue based out of Lisbon, Iowa.  Somehow she manages to make time for her much-loved canines, Roger and Tilly. 

Nicole is an incredible asset to Wired Production Group. Her cheery presence is a force to be reckoned with on a daily basis. Her expertise is taking this company to new places, and it’s of great benefit to us all.
