Bethany's Bio

Bethany Parr is the consummate multi-tasker. She navigates a schedule that would give most people vertigo with serene calm. In her five years with J. Schmid she has gone above and beyond the improbable to bring projects through gridlock deadlines; she can convey urgency without creating negative stress, or panic.

Bethany has extensive experience in email marketing using several different interfaces: She is proficient in Publicaster, Constant Contact, and Mercury Mail. Technically complex subjects don’t phase her, or even give her pause. She has learned an impressive amount of detailed information in preparation for specialized catalogs, which have included subjects such as wireless connectivity, portability, and animal science.

Bethany has handled accounts for the BBC, High Plains Bison, Guideposts, and Big Popper. She graduated from the University of Central Missouri with a Bachelor of Science in Business Management.

"It’s better to know some of the questions than all of the answers."

—Bethany Parr, Account Executive
