Brad Bonic, Account Strategist

Brad manages and optimizes search engine marketing and display advertising campaigns for several clients at Lever Interactive. He has a keen eye for detail, loves crunching numbers, and identifying new opportunities to help his clients improve their on-line presence and grow their business.

Brad comes to Lever from Starcom Mediavest Group, where he managed both on-line and off-line marketing and advertising campaigns representing a wide range of clients including Caterpillar, MCFA Inc, Sprint, OfficeMax, HobbyTown USA, and ImmediaDent. He was the interactive campaign lead and trainer for his office and was a integral part of the team that optimized internal processes as well as client service programs. With years of experience in media planning and budgeting, reporting and analytics, art/order processing and billing Brad brings a well-rounded approach to client services and campaign management.

Originally from the south side of Chicago, Brad now lives in Plainfield with his partner, Brandon, and their two dogs: Tucker, a Golden Retriever-Husky-Hound mix, and Bruiser, a Brussels Griffon-Schnauzer mix. Brad loves cooking and baking, skills he learned from his grandmother growing up, and is always looking for a great recipe. He also enjoys researching his family history and along with his mother has traced his Irish roots back to the 17th century. When he isn’t in the kitchen or digging for clues on-line, Brad enjoys spending time with his family – especially his nephew, Colby.
