She led her team to deliver new product launches, local media activation, national Super Bowl ads, and cross-channel marketing attribution utilizing first and third-party data sets for clients including Honda, Gander Outdoors, Garrett Popcorn Shops, and Weathertech. Cryder-Holoubek previously served as EVP, Media at Pinnacle during which time she crafted bespoke media plans to match her clients' desired customer journeys focusing on reaching an audience with an increasingly fragmented media consumption. Rounding out Cryder-Holoubek's experience was her work as Chicago Market Director of Digital Brand Strategies at 2060 Digital where she supported small- and medium-sized businesses by providing access to the expertise of certified teams and platforms to businesses that would have been "too small, not interesting" for larger agencies.
"Ansira's media solutions, inclusive of the proprietary ad-tech, are industry-leading," remarked Cryder-Holoubek. "I am energized by the opportunity to join the Ansira team and drive success for this impressive roster of clients."
Cryder-Holoubek joins Arnold on the Ansira executive team along with Chief Operating & Financial Officer Rudy Gonzalez, Chief Marketing Officer Kelly Jo Sands, Chief Product & Technology Officer Ed McLaughlin, and Executive Vice President Integrated Loyalty Sukumar Muthya.
