MAX KLAUSNER

BackgroundPage 1Page 2Page 3BackgroundI grew up in an entrepreneurial family outside of Washington D.C. Enveloped in a growing makeup business that was later sold I learned how to turn ideas into marketable products and the ferocious work ethic required to start and grow a small business. Creativity was a seminal virtue and I became very involved with photography, art, design, and magic. This passion led me to NYU where I learned to make films and worked for an academy award nominated director. After graduating from NYU, I worked on building a new company with my family. Leading the web efforts I assembled a team and oversaw the creation of a customer-centric website that would enable all sales and marketing to move online. The successful launch and marketing campaign established the new venture as a brand leader in its space and overall sales increased dramatically. While filming a documentary in Morocco I was offered the opportunity to run Monster.coms new social network for small business owners. I have since helped launch a number of growing communities and currently manage 4 sites with over 750,000 members and 2 million page views a month. Overall, I am passionate about innovation and ideas and love to build things. I have developed a unique blend of creativity and business acumen and focus these skills on ambitious projects. bastarpuppixsmallbizmonster1img_6639ccpicture 508528_846912962557_8617012_51709604_5584071_nhatpicPage 1 BA STAR The #1 Makeup Brand for Cheerleaders and Dancers.Creative Director, Marketing Director, Product Manager, PartnerWebsite: BASTAR.com Puppix Original Pop Portraits of mans best friend and kids.Founder, Photographer, DesignerWebsite: PuppixbyMax.com3 Divas dancebastarimg_6639ccimg_3048picture 51picture 51A dynamic part of any page, this component can contain any type of media:images, text and more, and have its own menu attached.To add media simply drag and drop them into a Mini Page page.Note:If you only want to display photos, use Galleries > Photo Albums.puppixpuppixpuppixpuppixpopthumb5Page 2AFFINITY LABSLaunch and Manage Monster.com's Social Networks Monster.comLaunch Team:SmallBizLinkMediaBuzz.comNonProfitPeople.comManagerLink.comAdmissions.comCommunity Manager:Excelle Monster CollegeSmallBizLinkNon Profit People+750k users,2 million + PVs per monnth 8528_846912962557_8617012_51709604_5584071_npicture9picture12smallbizpicture 528528_846912962557_8617012_51709604_5584071_nPage 3Below are a few articles originally written for SmallBizLink6 Technology Trends That Will Change How You Do Business in 2010Phone LiberationCloud ComputingThe End Of PaperThe Battle For LocalSocial SpendingMobile Payment Procesing Coming Up With A Killer Business IdeaDo You Have What It Takes to Work For A Small Business2010techbig_idea_crop380wsmall_business_crop380wARTPHOTOGRAPHYFILMBIOPage-0
