After becoming familiar with Ted’s work at Expedia, I recruited him to lead email marketing when I became CEO at Orbitz Worldwide. Ted did a fabulous job for us, envisioning and executing on a thoughtful CRM program. He also played an important role in the development of the Orbitz loyalty program, which was very effective at increasing hotel attachment rates.
Ted is an expert in the email marketing space and I’m happy to recommend Ted and GetWham Consulting if you want to get serious about email marketing.

I hired Ted to run email marketing at Hotwire. Within two months he delivered a forty-page, single-spaced strategic plan that exceeded all expectations. He then proceeded to transform the company’s email marketing program, doubling the share of transactions attributable to this low-cost channel. His work was so good that when Hotwire was purchased by Expedia he was promoted to repeat his success there.
In the years that have followed I have hired Ted as a consultant multiple times; his work is always superior and he is my go to guy whenever I need to improve my email marketing team’s performance. Engaging Ted to improve your email marketing programs is a decision you will never regret.
