Barbara Wickman is a passionate salesperson who brings to the Blinder Group 26 years of sales and marketing experience. Barbara's background includes working with hundreds of small businesses coast-to-coast – consulting in their marketing strategies, and assisting Fortune 500 companies with their virtual multi-million dollar transactions. She has years of experience as a "street fighter," working with media company clients as a business consultant for CMGI's "Zip2" initiative. During that time Barbara was personally responsible for helping to generate over ten million dollars of new revenues for her client media companies. In that capacity she met with thousands of small, medium and large businesses – in markets all over North America – as she trained advertising salespeople on how to bring multimedia solutions to their customers.

Today Barbara is an Internet multi-media specialist in advertising, e-learning and business communications. She assists businesses both large and small in taking advantage of new interactive services to improve their bottom line. Barbara resides in San Diego, managing the Blinder Group's southwestern US offices. She also is bi-lingual in German and travels frequently to Europe to work with our international clients. She has recently fulfilled her position as President for the local chapter of "Toastmasters International” and remains very active in the organization.

"Blinder's sales team training was exactly the message I wanted them to hear. The ad reps were taught that the Web is all about audience, not about technology. They were made to feel empowered about their growing online audience as a complement to their print offerings."
