Dream Local Digital Names Chief Revenue Officer

Digital marketing agency Dream Local Digital has created a leadership position for a chief revenue officer and hired Ron Belyea, formerly digital director of the Sarasota [Fla.] Herald Tribune and VP-COO of VillageSoup Media in Rockland, Maine.

Dream Local Digital recently closed a round of investment funding to heavily expand its sales and marketing efforts. The creation of the new role of chief revenue officer is the first of several moves the company will be making in 2019 to fuel growth.

Belyea, who will remain based in Sarasota, will lead the internal sales team, and also work with media company and agency reseller partnerships throughout North America to drive revenue growth and value to partners and customers nationwide. His background combines print and digital leadership, sales, and working with customers directly to grow their businesses, making him an excellent fit for this new role.

Dream Local Digital offers social media management and advertising, search engine optimization and advertising, website development, strategic planning, display advertising, email marketing, mobile marketing and video services to small and medium sized businesses nationwide directly and through their reseller network made up largely of media companies.
