An accomplished technology industry marketing veteran, Wong has rejoined the company, previously serving as vice president of marketing, to help drive the next stage of growth and capitalize on current market opportunities.
“Carmela-s deep understanding of e-commerce solutions both from a marketing standpoint, and as a user, make her an excellent re-addition to the Rainmaker management team,” said Donald J. Massaro, president and CEO at Rainmaker. “Her previous tenure with the company was highly successful, and we are excited to have her back onboard to effectively market our solutions as we look to the next stage of growth.”
Wong brings more than 20 years of corporate, agency and client-side marketing experience to the Rainmaker management team, including serving as the company-s vice president of marketing from 2003 – 2008.
