Ken Pearce, who joined the Foster Web Marketing team in December of 2006 as a project manager, is now a sales manager. His wide-ranging spectrum of personal and professional life experiences made him a great addition to the team. He knows exactly how to spread the word, set up websites and work with law firms across the U.S. and Canada.

Professional Experience
From the very start of Ken’s career, he’s been working in sales. Right out of college, with a BBA in Marketing from James Madison University, he secured a job selling computer printers in the North Virginia area. He fared well as a senior marketing representative with a North Virginia company, considering he was one of the top printer salesmen in the country. He won contests with the NEC Corporation that landed him with trips to Switzerland, Paris, Monte Carlo, and Tahiti.

In the early 1990s, Ken decided to go back to school at Virginia Commonwealth University to get his degree in teaching. At a Virginia high school, Ken taught business classes. He also taught in the areas of computer concepts, accounting, and keyboarding, while also enjoying a JV baseball coach position on the side.

Soon after, however, the sales and marketing field was beckoning for Ken to come back. So he took a position as an account executive with Virginia Lawyers Weekly. During this time, Ken also worked independently, traveling around to meet different clients and attending trade shows to get new clients. During that time, Ken offered his services and talents to create campaigns and advertisements.
