It’s no exaggeration for me to characterize Jeff Yonker as a godsend. When I had no clue on how to proceed with developing, designing, and launching my website Cover Band Central, Jeff stepped in and took charge. His knowledge of all things regarding web design allowed me to focus on the creative aspect of my business, and this remains true to this day. Not only Jeff well versed in technical know-how, he understands and implements the human element. He knows this is about people engaging with people. In addition, Jeff takes a proactive approach regarding anticipated challenges. He knows the obstacles that may need to be overcome, and puts a system in place before they become an issue. Jeff’s ability to handle any task that I throw at him with care, diligence, and precision makes him the ideal candidate for any position available.

I have worked with Jeff in the past as his co-worker and have also collaborated with him on several freelance initiatives. Jeff is the guy at the center of the intense movie scene we’re all familiar with…at the center of the war room, with all the major players hovering around him anxiously. But Jeff is not sweating. Jeff cooly pilots the technology when the pressure is on and the stakes are high to deliver his employer out of trouble and climb above the marketing turbulence. This guy has no weak spots. If you need a digital marketing guru or fixer, you definitely want him on your side, not on the competition’s side.

I’ve known Jeff for years and he has consistently proven to be an energetic and creative marketing force across all platforms. I’ve never met anyone that can so quickly understand and identify a need or challenge and as quickly match up the most effective and proven strategies for success. He is a great communicator and a versatile talent that would be an enormous asset in any organization.

Working with Jeff photographing TerraTrikes is always a good time. Direction is very clear, and Jeff is open to other’s ideas. It’s been amazing to watch how deftly Jeff and his marketing skills have elevated the TerraTrike brand.

Along with being creative, efficient and dependable Jeff is an amazing knowledge resource. I swear Jeff could write “how to” books on everything from html to php to global positioning systems. Jeff’s that rare combination, fun to hang out with as well as super reliable, if you have a creative or technical issues he’ll solve it.

Over the last few years of working with Jeff, I’ve been thoroughly impressed by his ability to create connections between the products that he markets and the consumers that buy them. He has a deft knowledge of exactly what customers need to see to create desire for a product, by appealing to the human nature of consumers. From traditional and digital creative, to the understanding of lead generating digital tactics, I’m fully confident that Jeff’s skill set would be applicable in any setting where his creativity and desire to try new things would be showcased.

I’ve worked with Jeff for more than a decade and he has always been a great adjunct member of our team. Long after he completed the custom development of some of our web assets he has remained available to us to maintain and update them along the way. From minor edits to a near-complete rebuild, Jeff takes ownership of his work and it does not end upon delivery. If his name is on it, he will support it. Jeff is a pleasure to work with, a great communicator throughout the process, and very responsive. If you choose to work with Jeff, you will not be disappointed.

After knowing Jeff as a colleague and mentor in the design and marketing industry for many years, I was lucky enough to get to work with him for a couple of years in a design, web and marketing role. Jeff is a great manager and leader who nurtures creativity in his team and isn’t afraid to share the credit when the job is complete. He is a true “unicorn” in the industry in that he has a natural design sense, a love of learning, and solid skills in coding and web development, staying up on the latest in Internet technology and marketing trends. In addition, Jeff is a passionate brand ambassador with vision to take branding and marketing campaigns from concept to execution with proven success.

Jeff was the most solid, creative and consistent developer at the company for the years he was at Biggs-Gilmore. He was the interactive person the agency management knew “would get us where we needed to go”. Not a pushover, because he was always thinking of new ways to do things, and trying to help the group stay calm while innovating in the midst of facing challenges. Jeff was an invaluable driver as the agency made its way towards innovation. He was more than just “there” then, and deserves that acknowledgement. If a company could have a very, very small team of online “magicians”, Jeff Yonker should be there.

Jeff was a pleasure to work for and with. He’s always a cool headed professional who is never afraid to take on any project no matter the challenges involved. Jeff is one of the good ones.

I learned a lot from my time working for him, and strive to emulate his work ethic and dedication to shaping powerful brand moments from the ground up.

I was introduced to Jeff when he was the Marketing Director at TerraTrike. We are one of their many dealers. From the time we first met, I knew that he would do great things for the company. Jeff has the ability to take a different perspective from the usual bicyclist marketing to engage consumers outside the typical bike shop customer. He looked to engage the recreational cyclist as opposed to the hardcore enthusiast. Jeff helped TerraTrike grow significantly year after year, and thereby help my business grow as one of their dealers. He has a very professional demeanor, but still very approachable with his great sense of humor. He was always eager to listen to ideas from the field.

Jeff Yonker’s combination of professionalism, creativity and innovation are unmatched. He has always been ahead of the curve on what’s new in digital media. The projects he touches always seem to turn to marketing gold!

I worked with Jeff at Biggs|Gilmore, and several years later, was thrilled to encourage adding him to Felder Communications’ staff as Director in my capacity as CSO. Jeff is a joy to work with; an unflappable, enthusiastic, boundlessly resourceful one-man wrecking crew. I understand he is a capable manager, but my experience with him has been more intimate, brain-on-brain, solving problems together. He has an unusual capacity to fully integrate front-end and back-end capabilities, being a capable web developer, gifted designer, and possessing extraordinary technical skill. Jeff has distinguished himself as a true marketer, possessing superb instincts for the interests and needs of his target audiences, and crafting tools and user experiences that engage and deepen their involvement with his clients’ brands.

I am proud to have known Jeff for roughly 40 years as I write this. Jeff is a truly inspiring, creative, collaborative professional who operates with unfailing integrity. I’ve had the pleasure of leveraging Jeff’s partnership and expertise on several very successful marketing, web development/design and SEO projects – and that success in large part is owed to his contributions. Whether the challenge is problem solving, trouble shooting, initial concept, in the box or out of the box – Jeff’s approach and experience will deliver an excellent outcome. Working with him is fun and engaging, and I look forward to tapping his expertise again in the future

Jeff was pretty much our whole interactive department at one point. His skill and versatility were important to the growth of the agency at that time.

Jeff is one of the most creative individuals I’ve ever worked with. He was the creative go-to guy for every project for his first several years at Biggs-Gilmore, and was instrumental in helping to grow the Interactive side of their business to the point where it is now 100% of what they do. He also mentored many of the junior creative staff and helped jumpstart their careers. Jeff always seems to have his finger on the pulse of what’s going on online. I can always count on him to keep me up-to-date on the latest viral marketing technique or cool Web site. He gets my highest recommendation.

Jeff is a versatile player in new media. From his right brain comes original music composition, podcasting, an eye for design and the knack to find the wackiest stuff on the web. From his left brain comes hardcore CD-ROM authoring, PHP coding and one of the most knowledgeable MAC guys I’ve ever encountered.

Jeff is a rarity in the world: A person with solid software and systems engineering chops, business acumen, and talent galore in traditionally creative fields like marketing, music, sound, and video production. He has a “can-do” attitude and has great customer focus. I would welcome any chance to work with Jeff in any capacity.

Jeff is a quadruple threat – he’s a brilliant brand marketer, creative communications/UX strategist, savvy developer, and all-around great guy. Our history goes back nearly 30 years to the start-up of the interactive department at Biggs|Gilmore. Together, we helped the agency successfully expand clients from traditional print media into the digital realm.
