People Say Nice Things

SVP, Go-To-Market
Maria Rutland
Aaron is a talented strategic marketer and an inspiring communicator and public speaker. These qualities combine to give him the unique super-power of exponential impact.
He can quickly create a no-nonsense, results-oriented, strategically sound vision—and then coach, evangelize, and galvanize a team to turn that vision into practical action.
In my time working with Aaron, I both observed and benefited from his expertise in marketing best practices and his talent for driving effectiveness across the complex motions from marketing strategy to execution. Aaron is the best kind of colleague and partner in that he will challenge the status quo, offer solutions, and passionately advocate for necessary change.
My career was enriched by having worked with him. Any client, organization, or colleague he works with is fortunate to have him.

Aaron brings the human into every aspect of his job.
He sees past the corporate woo-woo and builds relationships on a foundation of mutual trust and respect, all the while building thoughtful, strategic visions that take into account the smallest of details, leaving no stone (or voice) unturned.
If you have an out-there, potentially crazy idea, go to Aaron. If you're unsure of your next move and need a voice of reason, go to Aaron.
He's a great person to have in business for the simple fact that he's a trusted voice in a world with pre-set chess moves.

Aaron is one of the most creative people I have ever known or had the pleasure of working with.
He has an incredible knowledge of all avenues involved in the video world and new media, and interprets the complexity with a confidence that engages you to want to know more.
Aaron's talent and personality are one of a kind and would undoubtedly be an amazing asset to any team or organization.

President
Marilyn (Rupp) Cox
The first time I heard Aaron present, I was impressed.
While the presentation was engaging and informative, it was also smart. Aaron's skill set, attention to detail, and focus on analytics are a reminder that smart marketing wins every time. With a focus on past and present behavior, personas, and relevant content, Aaron contributed to an outstanding program delivering strong results for Dell.
Aaron embodies the smart, strategic marketer that every company desires to have on their team.

SVP, Marketing
Josh Thomas
What separates Aaron from most marketers is not only his deep knowledge of marketing and the customer, but also the level of grit and determination needed to successfully execute a campaign, tactic, or larger strategy. I've never seen someone better suited for the label of "gets stuff done".
Aaron brings his A-game every day. He is a results-oriented leader who understands the entire sales cycle for multiple industries and is able to craft the right experience to turn a prospect into a customer.
I highly recommend Aaron for any team or organization that needs a dynamic marketing vision and someone willing to roll up their sleeves to push it over the finish line.

Manager, Public Awareness and Public Engagement
Charles Hearne
One of our driving values at the Prison Entrepreneurship Program is Servant-Leader Mentality, and there is no better description for a man such as Aaron Cullers.
Aaron served our program participants as a business plan advisor consistently for four years, many times taking on as many as three advisees per class! Aaron is dedicated to providing sound feedback and thorough market research to each participant.
He stays committed from beginning to end. We were blessed to have Aaron on the team.

Vice President, Principal Analyst
Terry Flaherty
Having worked directly with Aaron in multiple capacities (including side-by-side in consulting engagements at SiriusDecisions), there are few better “proofs of concept” for the evolution of the death of meaningless MQLs and the rise of buying groups and opportunity development. Aaron’s not only embraced how B2B organizations sell today, but driven transformations in teams and companies to adapt to how those same orgs grow tomorrow, too.
He’s almost – cheesy analogy alert – a “marketing personal trainer” – urging his teams (and other functions like sales and finance) to try one more innovation, give it just one more pass at optimizing a program or a campaign with meaningful insight about what makes an account convert. He’s done it globally, regionally, as a practitioner, consultant, and agency resource.
He's great at managing both up and down the organization. He did a great job exceeding expectations of his managers and drove a huge amount of innovation for clients in his projects. His team thought he was a great leader. And most importantly, his clients loved him. He does a great job of driving change in complex and politically challenging organizations.
And on top of it all, he's just a good, solid person who is fun to work with.

Senior Marketing Manager
Julie Aronson
I had the privilege of working on Aaron’s team two different times in my career, and those experiences shaped my professional growth in countless ways. Aaron is not only incredibly smart and supportive, but also consistently goes above and beyond to lend a helping hand to his team.
What sets Aaron apart is his openness to new ideas and his genuine encouragement for his team to strive for excellence. He creates an environment where new ideas and creativity are not just welcomed, but celebrated.
Working for Aaron was always fun and engaging. He is dedicated to teaching his team everything he can and sharing his wealth of knowledge and experience generously.
Beyond our professional relationship, Aaron has been a mentor and a friend; he is someone I can always rely on for guidance and support. If you ever have the opportunity to work with Aaron, take it. He is a remarkable leader who truly cares about his team's success and well-being.

Director, Martech & Operations
Anusha Ramachandran
I have had the wonderful opportunity to work with Aaron as my colleague on a Marketing leadership team, and have always been energized and inspired by his strategic and pragmatic approach towards designing and enabling Demand Generation & Digital Marketing capabilities.
Aaron is a smart, witty, and confident leader who has the ability to generate excitement and genuine engagement for his vision. Any organization seeking a Marketing leader who has the courage and conviction to design bold strategies & vision for transformational efforts and lead with empathy and respect for colleagues and team members would benefit from Aaron's expertise and talent.
I have truly enjoyed working with Aaron and look forward to seeing his career growth & progress to the C-suite.

Senior Manager, Digital Platforms
Robert Blau
Aaron brought immense creativity, fresh perspective, the initiative and desire to improve current practices and try new things, and the skill to perform his role to the highest standards every day.
As the driving force behind the video coverage of the NAB Show, Aaron conceptualized, wrote, coordinated, and directed the production of these widely-viewed and critically-acclaimed projects.
Aaron's positive disposition and insight made him a valuable member of a team and a good person to be around. He would be a strong asset to any organization, and I recommend him without reservation.
