John-Scott Dixon

ThoughtLava/Semanticator

I have over 15 years of experience managing and leading the Ecommerce efforts of medium and large companies. I have held sales, sales management, marketing, operations, IS/IT, legal and executive management positions in start-up to multi-billion dollar organizations. I have also served as an adjunct professor of Ecommerce for the MBA program of the University of Missouri (where I received an MBA concentrated in Direct Marketing in 1989). I led the Ecommerce initiative for Sprint PCS (PCS) and Sprint (FON) as Vice President of Ecommerce. I led the integrated marketing efforts for Insight (NSIT) as Senior Vice President of Marketing and Ecommerce. Today, I am the President of ThoughtLava, an Internet Sales and Marketing company with patent pending technology to increase relevance and, therefore, conversion (prospects over visitors). I am an entrepreneur in the Semantic Web space with a wonderful wife and two beautiful kids. I love running in the desert with my wife - it keeps us connected.
