Jerry Brown

Jerry’s main goal is to be a business person for business people. If you ask him what type of employee Uptick hires, he will tell you that they hire business people, not marketers. That’s because Jerry (and all of Uptick) believes that it’s harder to teach a business mindset than it is to teach marketing services, and if their top priority is going to be understanding your business and partnering with you on a digital strategy, they had better have a solid grip on how business works.

Because of his passion for helping business owners succeed, Jerry makes sure they understand all the possible ways to connect with their target audience, convert prospects into leads, turn leads into customers, and ultimately make more money. From communicating regularly with clients to anticipating the next innovations in the marketplace, Jerry keeps Uptick moving.

In his 20+ years of digital marketing experience, Jerry has worked with local businesses like dental practices, lawyers, retail stores, banks, and many, many more. He’s also worked with big names like Target, Wells Fargo, and Coca-Cola United. This variety has given him a profound understanding of how digital marketing functions on a smaller scale and a larger one, equipping him with the experience he needs to work with any business of any size.

While he pays special attention to Uptick’s clients, Jerry also enjoys sharing his knowledge with the public. He has spoken at the American Marketing Association, the American Advertising Federation, and a number of chamber of commerce meetings across Alabama. He has also spent time investing in the next generation of marketing professionals by speaking to students at Jacksonville State University, Samford University, and UAB.
