Aaron and I have served together on the CIMA Board of Directors since 2005 and in that time I have been continually impressed with his natural leadership abilities, his keen sense for scoping out new opportunities, his strategic vision, and his drive and dedication to the CIMA brand.

Aaron’s efforts as VP Sponsorships have been intstrumental in fueling CIMA’s unprecedented growth and have given Aaron the unique luxury of expanding his professional network to literally thousands of senior executives in interactive marketing.

If you study Aaron’s immense network on LinkedIn alone, you’ll quickly come away concluding that he’s the most-connected expert in the interactive industry – regardless of the geo. Aaron will no doubt build his new company - Connectual - into a powerhouse digital practice in record time. I look forward to watching Aaron fulfill on his promise to himself and the community with his bold new venture.

Aaron is one of those amazing people that knows absolutely everyone, and for good reason. Aside from being a really nice guy, he brings acumen well beyond his years to attack any business challenge.

I had the opportunity to work with him on several new business pitches, and can easily say that the perspective he brought and direction he provided won us many incremental scopes and contracts. Aaron always thinks about things from clients’ perspective, which helped us craft our messages and delivery in ways that clients love.

I learned a great deal from my time spent with Aaron, and anyone who does get the opportunity to work with him will surely do the same. If you’re looking to grow your revenue by closing new business or upselling existing business, Aaron’s the first guy you call.

Kurt Karlenzig | SVP, Interactive, Element 79
was with another company when working with Aaron at Resolution Media

I first met Aaron shortly after Omnicom acquired Resolution. I was immediately impressed with his ability to build relationships and partner with our agency and clients. There was a gap in understanding of how search can work to both strengthen cross channel campaign efforts and unlock other brand assets.

With Aaron's knowledge of search and it's potential for brands, he quickly aligned compelling cases and specific recommendations that gave our clients confidence to invest in search. After implementing successful SEO and SEM programs, our clients became big advocates for Resolution and the potential of search marketing.

Aaron is expert at both finding solutions and creating the partnerships that help teams work together seamlessly. He is always extremely insightful and willing to share; which helps make him possibly the best connector of connectors you will ever come across.

Though I only just started working with Aaron since the beginning of 2009, it is already apparent to me that he is an exceptional talent. As Aaron's successor in new business development at Resolution Media, I have an excellent vantage point for appreciating the magnitude of his many accomplishments.

In just 4 and 1/2 years, Aaron's salesmanship has taken Resolution Media from a tiny start-up to a top 20 search marketing agency with over 85 employees and a blue chip client list. His combination of an outstanding work ethic, ubiquitous industry connections, and incredible raw intelligence have been a crucial contributor to Resolution Media's rise as an independent firm and ultimately to its acquisition by Omnicom.

I can think of no other person more qualified to help grow other interactive media companies or marketing agencies than Aaron Goldman.

Bryson Meunier | Associate Director, Search Engine Optimization, Resolution Media

Many people have said this already, but Aaron really is one of the brightest bulbs in search. Since I started at Resolution Media in 2005, Aaron has taught me more about business and search than about anyone in the industry, whether through his Search Insider column, or by working directly to discover the business impact of search for a potential client.

He’s a visionary digital marketer, more connected than a chain link fence, and a great guy to know and work with. If you have the opportunity to partner with him to take your business to the next level, take it.

Shawn Riegsecker | Founder and President, Centro
was with another company when working with Aaron at Resolution Media

I've had the pleasure and honor in knowing and working on projects with Aaron for the past eight years. Aaron possesses a ton of intelligence and industry knowledge on many levels which allows him to look at situations and come up with creative solutions to most problems.

At the same time, he has the ability to break it down and put the idea into language everyone in the room can grasp and understand. His character and personality have made him a trusted friend and adviser to those he's come in contact with over the years.

If I were starting a business again, Aaron is one of the individuals I'd want on my team. His depth of industry contacts and experience are hard to match.
