“Gerry is one of the most inspiring marketer's I have ever worked with. It was this inspiration that resulted in his provocative campaign brief to explain "Why Hitachi?" to spearhead the repositioning of Hitachi's corporate brand in North America to business decision makers. The resulting highly successful Hitachi True Stories campaign was in large part due to his tenacity and verve in driving internal support for the campaign over a three year period. From the start Gerry lead a highly creative approach to the campaign fundamentals insisting on a digital platform that led to the web being the strategic hub of the campaign. His relentless collaboration with Hitachi busnesses resulted in 5 true story documentary films being developed in less than 3 months. Gerry was never satisfied and it was his constant desire to always improve the campaign that garnered the positive shifts in Hitachi's brand consideration during the campaign and its Effie finalist and One Show accolades. Gerry is not only inspiring to work with but a marketer who really can see around corners and is able to get the best strategic and creative thinking done while making it seem like a conversation among friends.” December 8, 2008
