Dave Kerpen

I am father of 2 amazing girls, husband to Carrie, and CEO of Likeable, a leading social media and word of mouth marketing firm. I'm also author of the forthcoming book, Likeable Social Media: How to Delight Your Customers, Build an Irresistible Brand, and Be Generally Amazing on Facebook (and Other Social Networks). (McGraw-Hill, May 2011). I've been on CNBC's "On the Money", ABC World News Tonight, the CBS Early Show, and the New York Times, and countless blogs. Likeable Media has enjoyed triple digit growth for the past 3 years, working with dozens of clients including 1-800-Flowers.com, Adobe, Heineken, Neutrogena, Verizon, managing the presence of over 250 brands on Facebook, and other social media sites. I am proud of Likeable's 2008, 2009 and 2010 WOMMY Awards from the Word of Mouth Marketing Association (WOMMA) but more proud of my two little girls at home-- Charlotte and Kate.
