Norman Brauns

Big ideas are the stuff success is made of, and our CEO Norman fearlessly leads the strategic vision of PACIFIC. He has over 10 years of experience in search marketing, and anyone who has ever crossed paths with him will tell you this guy knows his stuff.

Thanks to a passion for keywords and a Type-A personality, Norman has been the driving force behind hundreds of successful campaign implementations throughout his career. When he founded PACIFIC, he knew he wanted to kick up some dust in the industry, and has grown a handful of beta customers into a robust roster of top-tier brands across the globe.

Prior to PACIFIC, Norman held various search marketing and development positions at Websense, Cenzic, and SEO Inc. Most recently, he served as GM for the digital advertising firm STEAK in Los Angeles. And even though he claims to be a shy violet, he is a frequent speaker and panelist at various industry events.

When Norman is not busy making things work at work, he spends his free time pretending to train for an IRONMAN triathlon; he also loves to snowboard and bake. To his employees, he is known for leading by example, as well as making really long speeches and placing an embargo on Cheez-Its. PS: Norman wants you to know he hates titles, and was forced to write this bio.
