With 12 years of growth and innovation, the HomeSource team has maintained a singular vision: to make life simpler for retailers and manufacturers by aggregating large amounts of data into one single, usable system. Today, that vision is blending with new cloud technology in ways that would have seemed impossible even a decade ago. It is now possible to bring together millions of pieces of information – including item numbers, product specs, training videos, and more – into an app that can be used and updated in real-time. The result isn’t just useful, it’s groundbreaking. Although we work with cloud-based apps and systems, we have never forgotten that we are in the business of solving problems. That means we’ll keep working hard to find new ways to help our customers benefit from accurate content and streamlined processes.### SummaryAre you a results-oriented marketer with a proven track record in digital advertising, omni-channel strategy, and ROI-driven optimization?
