ATHENS, Ohio, March 27, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- This week
Colin Donohue, Principal Strategist
for Root Deeper Marketing (www.rootdeeper.com) was selected as
Ohio's first Google Partners
Community Ambassador for promoting excellence in Google Adwords
and Analytics management through service to the Google Partners
Community.
Scott Christopher, the Google
staff member responsible for the community shares the significance
of the recognition "Colin was selected as one of only 18
Ambassadors chosen from over 22,000 members in the Partners
Community across North America and
is our first in Ohio."
This distinction was a recognition of both technical competence,
but also of an elevated level of service to the Partners Community,
an online forum for marketing professionals hosted by Google.
Christopher explains the selection.
"Colin demonstrated strong product knowledge of Adwords and
Analytics in addition to being consistently helpful to others
learning them," says Christopher.
"One thing that distinguished Colin is his ability to address
Adwords questions and issues from the perspective of business
strategy, and to demonstrate how answers to technical questions
relate to market conditions and business goals."
Donohue is glad for the opportunity. "I love the analytical
challenges of Adwords and Google Analytics. But I also like helping
people. Maybe it's all my time in the nonprofit world, but if I can
help a colleague solve a problem I faced or help a business harness
a new tool for marketing, it's a great day for me. It boils down to
helping people succeed, whether my clients or my colleagues."
Donohue has also had received recognition for helping in his
home town of Athens this year when
he was invited to join the Ohio
University Innovation Center as an "anchor tenant" to help
startups in Southeast Ohio
grow.
"Athens has such a
concentration of talent for a small city," explains Jennifer Simon, Director of the Innovation
Center. "At the Center we help some of these talented inventors and
innovators move their ideas into enterprises. Having Root Deeper
here provides our clients a pipeline of information about
cutting-edge developments in online marketing. It's really a
win-win for us."
