FEEDBACK FROM PRIOR CLIENTS, PARtners, ANd colleagues

When I think about best-in-class partners, innovators moving an industry forward, and today's top global thought leaders, I immediately think of Julio.

I have the distinct pleasure of partnering directly with Julio as a current client of his and his broader team at Movable Ink. During our partnership and under his expert guidance, I have been astonished by his achievements and how well he approaches his work. Julio brings it all together as a total package - his brilliant ideas, the detail on how to get there, the intel to inform a team and his clients, his influential executive presence, and, of course, his undeniably contagious passion and enthusiasm to inspire actions that lead to results.

Working with Julio is a true delight. I sincerely look forward to continuing our partnership and seeing where he leads our industry going forward. There's a bright future ahead, and Julio is leading the way!

It's rare to come across a standout talent like Julio.

I had the pleasure of working with Julio for over a year at Eversight (acquired by Instacart), collaborating on several projects. I was particularly impressed by Julio's ability to handle even the toughest clients-effortlessly. That skill often takes years to develop among customer service professionals, but it seemed to come perfectly naturally to him. No matter how tense a meeting, Julio made sure everyone left with a smile. Julio would be a great asset to any team.

"WHAT'S A CТА?"

OCTOBER 2010

I remember being on the very first client call that I was responsible for leading at my first job. The client kept asking about changes to the CTA - "lets move the CTA here, let's make the CTA bigger" - you know, typical things. After about 5 minutes I chimed in with "I'm sorry, I don't see the word CTA on my version of the creative." The silence on the phone was deafening. Luckily my team members made a lighthearted joke, and we moved on.

I guess we all have to start somewhere! This is my journey.
