I’m Ros de Vries, an avid sailor and community firebrand. I’ve served 5+ years with the American Red Cross, as a Blood Transportation Specialist and Disaster Responder.

In the marketing industry, I’m known as Ros Hodgekiss, the Customer Experience Programs Manager at Campaign Monitor. I’ve written 100’s of articles on email marketing, design and code. Also, I was a “Top Email Marketing Thought Leader“.

I am the social media coordinator for the San Francisco Sailing Science Center and Island Yacht Club, Alameda.

I live San Francisco with my talented husband, Nathan de Vries.

My specialist areas and achievements include:

• Customer Experience (CX) – I launched and deployed a global CX team, to drive retention and growth for high-value, self-service customers at Campaign Monitor. In FY20, the CX team achieved a 20% revenue uplift above baseline for customers engaged in their first 90-days of using the product. In addition, the CX team developed, and continue to improve on the customer journey, via: automated outreach to at-risk customers, live events & webinars, plus research and collaboration with Product, Marketing, Support and Customer Success.
• Project management and leadership – I launched Campaign Monitor’s customer support portal and knowledge base. In FY18, we reduced: IRT from 33 hours to < 1 hour; case resolution time by 10%; the Support Contact Index from 0.109 to 0.066.
• Digital marketing – As an early-stage employee, I helped grow Campaign Monitor to 40k+ paying customers, through social media & community management, plus the development of guides and resources. Here’s a summary of my work.

Ros has excelled in every task we’ve worked on together and has crushed every goal I’ve thrown her way. She’s not only been on time, on task, and on budget, but her delivery always comes with creativity, character, and a faultless attention to detail.
