DIRECTOR OF SOCIAL MEDIA
Evan Schendel
What did you do before you were a Miner?
+ A decade of brand marketing, strategy and content creation. A lot of time spent in the consumer packaged goods and consumer durables (vehicles) industries.
Share your favorite client memory.
+ One of my favorite client moments was helping a Founder & CEO get active on social media for the first time. His authentic presence sparked unexpected engagement with one of their biggest (and previously tense) customers — improving the relationship, boosting sentiment, and ultimately driving more revenue.
What are your favorite quotes?
+ “Discipline Equals Freedom” – Jocko Willink
+ “Be Killing Sin, or Sin Will Be Killing You” – John Owen
If you could have a dream dinner party, who would sit at your table?
+ Jesus, my wife and both of our extended families.
What do you enjoy doing when you aren’t at work?
+ Anything active and outdoors with my wife and son. Especially biking, cabin trips up north and going to any zoo!
What’s one thing on your bucket list that you’re determined to accomplish?
+ Biking across the state of Minnesota in less than 24 hours.
