Jess Held, Executive VP of Client Service at Lessing Flynn is my guest today on Public Relations Princess. Held was previously the Marketing Communications Manager at Vermeer Corporation in Pella, Iowa. A graduate from Central College, she also founded Studio 104, a design and advertising firm located in Pella.
Held brings an extensive marketing background to the firm – including experience in advertising, public/media relations, event planning, strategic marketing planning and product launch marketing. In her role at Lessing-Flynn, Held develops and implements branding, marketing and public relations strategies for Lessing-Flynn clients.
She's bringing Josh Fleming along. Josh is the Digital Manager at LF and a good pal of mine. Always a great source of comic relief, Josh is in charge of managing digital strategy and execution and is also the driving force behind LF's social media offerings. Lessing Flynn has a corporate blog that rates the best and worst of advertising campaigns in Iowa and beyond, and is an acute observer of the world of social media. Word!
