In the last edition of our ‘Meet the Team’ series we spoke with PPC Executive & Website Specialist Brandon Fryer, and now we’re getting to know our Accounts Manager Kevin Lopez. Kevin has been with topclick now for a total of 7 years, working across all areas of our operations to communicate with our amazing clients.
How did you get into marketing?
I’ve always been creative and marketing was just the natural way to express my ideas. I had early exposure to software during my first placement, one opportunity led to another and I eventually reached the marketing industry. Over the following years and thanks to the growth of online, I’ve loved working in the digital marketing industry and here at topclick.
What does a standard day for the Operations Manager include?
Clients, clients, clients – I’m here to do everything for them! From sparking new ideas, launching campaigns, discussing trends in the industry or helping ease the inevitable bumps in the road, I absorb it all and deal with it accordingly. I work closely with Richard, Brandon, Mel and Chris across our 3 key services – PPC, SEO & Social – to make sure our campaigns are targeted and the clients are getting the most out of them.
What is your favourite project you’ve worked on?
Over the years I’ve seen the complex, wacky and wonderful when it comes to different clients and projects. This has ranged from small start up ideas to global campaigns for multinational brands. Each journey is unique and incredible to work on in its own right. One of my stand out projects with topclick was for Vodafone, working on their UK and Ireland markets. It was fast pace, exciting & challenging but massively rewarding. We had to think creatively in such a competitive space but exceeded KPIs and gained huge market share.
What was your first job and what did it teach you about what you do today?
I did a lot of travelling before starting my career, so some interesting jobs such as fruit picking, fish mongering and removals! They all taught me the importance of a good client relationship and maintaining great communication. Both of which are great skills that serve me to this day and in my role at topclick.
Where do you get your motivation and inspiration from?
I’m a natural hard worker which is something I get from my parents, and has in turn motivated me to push for my own family. This ethos shows across the entire topclick team, which feels more like digital family!
Where would we most likely find you outside of work?
Amongst the chaos of having a young family, I love outdoor cooking and regularly find time to go running. I have entered the Surrey Half-Marathon this September with my friend and topclick’s founder, Miles Cottrell.
