I am an educated programmer, however I got an offer in the early stages of my career to become an account manager (sales) at one of the largest email marketing platforms in Europe, and I felt compelled to accept it. I received a solid education in email marketing and got to work at a strategic level with some of Scandinavia's largest brands at a strategic level, helping them to be more relevant and increase their results in their email marketing efforts. My in-depth technical knowledge was very useful in this position.
After my time as an account manager, I continued honing my skills in email marketing, this time as a solution architect at a startup agency in the travel industry. Starting with a white piece of paper, we set up all the processes and sent super-relevant information and offers to the travelers. When seeing the results of these super-targeted campaigns, I instantly knew that this is what I want to continue doing.
After two years with that agency, having joined in a basement in Copenhagen, I left them in very nice offices in Switzerland to start my own company, KindbergCo (Kindberg Consulting).
Among my long-term clients, we'll find Epteca, eBay, Infront AS, CDON, and Diageo.
Today, I have roughly around 14 years of work-life experience, whereof ten years as a freelancer.
I like being creative and driving part of a team, especially in projects where the result is easily measurable. There are a few occasions where I feel prouder than when a project I've been working on provides vast benefits for the client.

I am initially a programmer with a focus on web development. My primary focus in Microsoft technologies, such as C#.Net & MSSQL. Since 2010, I've got into retention marketing, and having worked at a strategic level with some of Scandinavia’s largest companies as well as being the system architect for a successful company focusing on that area, I feel confident to say that my core knowledge is a mixture of profitable retention marketing strategies as well as a strong technical knowledge.
An added benefit of having a person knowing both IT and marketing is a much easier translation of complex information between the management to marketing- and IT-team.
Having over 14 years work life experience, working with organizations big and small, and in fields ranging from sales & marketing to tech and IT, I would assume I'm best suited in the middle of marketing, sales and tech. Having a strong understanding of all of these stakeholders needs, I would not only facilitate the communication between these, but also suggest and perform the actual implementation single handed.
If you are a small organization, I can be the one go-to-guy for all your needs in this field.
If you are a larger organization, I can facilitate the communication between these three parts, as well as being an integral part of the process.
