Parqa Hires Chanel Schmidt as Senior Social Media Manager


MINNEAPOLIS, March 20, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Parqa, a full-service digital marketing agency that partners with staffing and recruiting firms throughout North America, has hired Chanel Schmidt as the company's Sr. Social Media Manager. As Parqa continues to establish itself as a leader in digital marketing for staffing and recruiting firms, the company continues to bring phenomenal leaders into the organization that provide value and strategic direction for its clients.

Parqa was founded three years ago and transitioned in 2018 to focus its efforts on the staffing and recruiting market, subsequently growing by more than 40 percent. Parqa is the sister company to Versique Search & Consulting and will continue to use its intimate experience within the staffing and recruiting industries to be a market leader in partnering with other firms to grow their brand credibility, online visibility and lead-generation efforts.

Prior to assuming this role, Schmidt was the Social Media & Influencer Specialist at Sleep Number Corporation. In this position, Schmidt transformed Sleep Number's previously outsourced Influencer Marketing program to an in-house enterprise, driving 20x lift in engagements and reach. Schmidt also led a team that launched the company's first-ever influencer-led store opening project in Manhattan, driving millions of impressions and engagements, sizable in-store traffic and impactful business results. Schmidt also helped overhaul Sleep Number's social media content strategy, seeing Social become the highest ROI-driving media channel across the entire organization. In all, Schmidt managed an annual budget of multiple millions of dollars for this publicly traded company.

"I am both honored and thrilled to bring my skill set to Parqa to further deliver value to our clients through social media marketing," Schmidt said. "I was so attracted to Parqa's culture of continuous improvement and collaboration, and I believe that social media is an invaluable resource to bring that growth to life and truly drive business results."

Parqa COO Jared Hummel said, "To get where we want to go, we must surround ourselves with people who have been there. Chanel not only has a proven track record of delivering strategic results for large organizations, but she is an exceptional human being who will make everyone on our team a better person in and out of the office. The first time I met her in the interview process, I knew we were going to do whatever it took to have her on our team. She is a proven winner."
