Every week, the TopRank Marketing team meets to recognize and celebrate collaboration by sharing how teammates have helped each other and our clients.
In the spirit of this tradition, and with Thanksgiving week upon us, the team would like to take a moment to reflect on what we are truly grateful for.
Messages of Thankfulness from the TopRank Marketing Team
“The changes and challenges B2B marketers are facing right now are pretty much unprecedented. I am thankful for a team of pro marketers at TopRank Marketing that not only adapts to those changes but proactively guides our clients with intelligence, confidence, and empathy. No one has all of the answers right now, especially with AI transformation and disruption. But knowing we have a team that our clients can count on to figure it out together is something I am extremely grateful for.
And of course, I am eternally thankful to my wife, my adult children and family for their love and support.”
Lee Odden
Founder & CEO
“I am thankful for our team and the collaboration, creativity, and support they bring to every project. Their commitment to producing meaningful, innovative work drives real impact for our clients. I am also grateful to our clients whose partnership allows us to build thoughtful, effective programs together.”
Alexis Hall
Vice President, Client Accounts
“I’m thankful for supportive teammates, meaningful work, and the chance to grow, learn, and contribute to something bigger than myself. Also for coffee, working from home, emotional support snacks, and the people who make life feel a little less chaotic and a lot more joyful (both family & friends)!”
Amie Krone
Sr. Director of Operations & HR
“I’m thankful for the practice of gratitude and the contentment it fosters. This year at work, I’m thankful for the leaders who have allowed and encouraged me to innovate, and all my colleagues who stay excited about finding the best ways to tackle challenges and help our clients.
I’m also grateful to the people who are inspiring me (even more than I let on!): Tequia Burt, Katie Robbert, Sally Hogshead, and Theresa Meis come to mind right away, and there are so many more.”
Jane Bartel
Director of Search & Content Marketing
“I am thankful for the opportunity to work with such a great team—the collaborative atmosphere and culture of support make all the difference. I’m also thankful for the amazing clients we work with, who allow us to push the creative boundaries. This environment has truly given me the space and resources to develop and grow my skills.”

“I feel incredibly grateful as the holiday season approaches. I’m thankful for the new opportunity I’ve had with TopRank Marketing and the chance to take on fresh challenges alongside a smart team and collaborative culture.
I’m especially thankful for the happiness and health of my family this year, and the time we’ve been able to spend together in this busy world. I look forward to enjoying some downtime over the holiday, filled with wonderful food, board games, live local music, and probably a nap!”
Erin Kerns
Senior Account Manager
“I’m thankful for all of the relationships I’ve built throughout the years! A lot of my accomplishments are thanks to the support of my family and friends, who push me day to day and bring joy into my life. I’m also really grateful to live in San Diego, where I get to enjoy great weather, great food, and an even greater community with my partner and pups!”
Ricardo Perez

“I’m grateful for my husband, who is just the best support/better half a girl could ever ask for, and grateful for my family, who are healthy, and that we continue to get closer and closer.”

“I am truly thankful for the opportunity to continue doing work that I love. What I love most is the honor of connecting with and learning from amazing people to create impactful content. Every day is a valuable learning experience, and I embrace it with gratitude.
My family, friends, and fur babies also deserve my deepest thanks for keeping me grounded and laughing.”
