When marketing leaders look for a brand ambassador or relationship strategist, the conversation often starts with reach, but it doesn’t end there. Reach without influence is vanity. What matters is the quality of the audience, the depth of relationships, and the ability to turn connections into opportunities. That’s where my network of over 8900 personal connections delivers unique value.
A Network of Decision-Makers
My LinkedIn community isn’t just large—it’s influential. Nearly half of my connections (46%+) hold senior decision-making roles:
- 23% C-Level Executives (CEOs, CFOs, COOs, CMOs)
- 12% Owners/Presidents
- 12% Founders & Co-Founders
- 9% Partners & Principals
This seniority breakdown demonstrates a network rich in Centers of Influence (COIs)—the people who directly shape strategic direction, budgets, and partnerships. For brands targeting high-value markets, this means your story reaches the decision-makers who can actually move the needle.
Industry Concentrations That Matter
While my network spans a diverse set of industries, certain sectors stand out as especially relevant for companies aiming to access high net worth (HNW) and ultra high net worth (UHNW) individuals:
- Entertainment & Media: ~9% of connections
- Wealth/Family Office/Investment: ~7%
- Technology & Innovation: ~7%
- Legal Professionals: ~4%
- Commercial Real Estate: ~3%
- Banking & Finance: ~3%
- Venture Capital & Private Equity: ~3%
When combined, these categories represent nearly one-third of my entire network—a highly targeted audience of wealth managers, dealmakers, creators, and influencers.
The Hidden Strength of “Other”
At first glance, 64% of my connections fall into an “Other/General” category. But a closer look reveals a strategic goldmine:
- Independent Consultants & Advisors: Over 100 professionals guiding clients across industries.
- Residential Real Estate Brokers: Compass, The Agency, Sotheby’s—each a direct line into UHNW households.
- Stealth Startup Founders: Tomorrow’s wealth creators already in my circle.
- Specialty Verticals: Cannabis entrepreneurs, music executives, and association leaders—all hubs of influence.
Rather than being “miscellaneous,” this category is a pool of connectors who bridge industries and create opportunities where others might not look.
Why This Matters for Your Brand
For a Marketing Director, the ROI comes down to this:
- Audience Quality: I engage with decision-makers and influencers, not just passive scrollers.
- Market Access: My connections overlap with industries where wealth, creativity, and capital intersect.
- Geographic Relevance: With a strong base in Southern California and New York, I operate in the epicenters of finance, entertainment, and culture.
- Relationship Equity: My background in private banking and specialty finance means my connections already trust me as a source of insight and opportunity.
Hiring me isn’t just about visibility. It’s about positioning your brand directly in front of the right audience—with credibility and authenticity.
In today’s crowded marketplace, brands can’t afford to shout into the void. They need to place their message in trusted hands that can carry it into the rooms that matter. My network is proof of that trust. With me as your partner, you don’t just gain an ambassador—you gain access to a high-value ecosystem primed for engagement.
