Brian lives in Cary, NC with three children. He moved here in 2002 from south of Rochester,
NY near the beautiful Conesus Lake and the hills of western New York. Brian and the boys enjoy a variety of activites
including sports, camping, fishing, travel, movies, board games, etc. Life is always full of fun new things to do!
For years, Brian moved frequently as a military spouse while his wife was in the Air
Force. Originally from South Bend, Indiana, home of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, he has lived in Indianapolis,
San Antonio, St. Louis, and overseas at Incirlik Air Base, Turkey.
His collegiate years were spent at the University of Dayton in Ohio where he majored in, of
all things, Latin American Studies & Politics. He was, however, smart enough to take an accounting course for non-majors
which gave him an appreciation for business and after graduation then led to a full slew of business courses to qualify
for MBA admission.
Among the few other interesting tidbits in his life, Brian spent a year in Colombia, South
America as a volunteer teacher and then after marrying spent a few months in rural Kenya at a missionary hospital where his
wife was studying healthcare (or lack thereof) in the third world. Of course, the safaris were spectacular! If
you ever get the chance, do it!
A couple of the odd goals that he plans to conquer in his life are sky diving and riding his
bike across the country from coast to coast! Wish me luck!
About Brian Baer - Business & Career
Brian has been creating websites for years and has been involved with the internet since the mid-1990's.
Brian's background in industrial marketing, internet marketing and telecommunications has come in handy as these areas have
started to converge.
As an independent contractor, Brian Baer created BaerMarketing.Net to brand himself as independent
of the industrial marketing companies he represented.
Now free from the limitations of a single industrial marketing product, Brian offers a more complete,
unencumbered, and unbiased marketing effort for his clients.
From 2000 - 2004 Brian represented one of the largest names in industrial marketing as an independent
contractor. His first two years were spent in the Rochester, NY area developing marketing partnerships with Upstate
New York manufacturing and industrial companies. In late 2002, Brian started working for the Carolinas region of this
same company. During his time with this industrial marketing company, Brian achieved a customer retention/renewal rate
of over 75% ! He won many sales contests including Rookie of the Year, the Meteor Club for second year contractors, and he was
a Contractor of the Month numerous times, both regionally and nationally.
Prior to that, Brian worked in many different aspects of marketing. He worked for a start-up dotcom company
where he did everything from sales and business development to management and finance. One of the best products at this
dotcom was a guaranteed Top 20 search engine ranking service, today known as Search Engine Optimization, or SEO.
Brian has worked in international telecommunications for Rapid Link Communications, Inc. and B2B telecom for
Southwestern Bell. He also previously managed telemarketing programs for AT&T, NationsBank, FingerHut and
other large companies.
Brian's affinity for industrial marketing began while working for the Indiana Department of Commerce. Brian
called on manufacturers throughout the state assisting them in developing and implementing marketing plans.
Brian continues to enjoy working with industrial companies and is quite happy to have returned to those roots!
