Annamarie Malfitana-Strawhand
- Director Of Web Development
Annamarie grew up in the sport of
auto racing and has over 25 years experience in motorsports marketing,
PR, sponsorship, media and management from the grass roots levels to
NASCAR Sprint Cup. She combined her experience and background into
a full service website and graphic design company (Drive-In Webdesign and
Marketing, LLC) that caters to the motorsports industry.
As the web developer for
SponsorEdge.com, Annamarie was able to bring her many years of experience
in motorsports sponsorship to custom build a complete 'proposal'
themed online profile for members that shows the key elements that
sponsors, teams, drivers, tracks, agencies and events are looking for in
their marketing materials and promotions. She also knew the value of
networking in the business and geared SponsorEdge.com to not only be an
online sponsorship database, but a complete social and business networking
site for racers, industry professionals and sponsors.
Annamarie is also a regular
contributor to the SponsorEdge.com 'Marketing Tips' and Blog feature
pages. She will offer her experience in approaching, landing, managing
and promoting sponsors to the SponsorEdge.com members.
For the last 10 years Annamarie has
also been effectively assisting drivers looking to advance their
careers in racing; as a professional marketing/image consultant and
development coach. She is also a keynote speaker and featured expert at
various motorsports marketing and sponsorship seminars as well as racing
radio programs around the country.
When she's not designing or consulting for her clients, Annamarie
finds her way to the race track! Her passion in life is helping
racers meet their goals and dreams. Annamarie lives in Virginia Beach, VA
with her husband and daughter.
