Sherry Merola, Moxie USA, has worked with Moxie USA for the better part of the last year on a wide range of productions, with budgets from $10K – $300K. Due to the immense workload, coupled with limited resources, Sherry has usually overseen 5-7 projects of varying difficulty simultaneously. Sherry has competently facilitated the production of new advertising assets for radio and web (acquiring voice over talent, booking studio time, managing audio/video editors, graphic artists, etc.) Sherry is dedicated, competent and creative. She can read a situation and adapt accordingly. Without hesitation, I can recommend Sherry Merola. – Sam Ciaramitaro – Executive Producer – Digitas

 

I worked closely with Sherry Merola throughout 2014 on various Verison Wireless projects, from online banners to complicated overnight shoots creating endless footage for several modular video units and all assets for the interactive units. Sherry is a great producer, creative partner and delightful to work with. She would be a great addition to any team. – Suzanne Darmory – Creative Director – Moxie

 

Having worked with Sherry on multiple occasions in digital campaign production, I would highly  recommend her for pulling together multifaceted, complex, inter-team projects. Not only for her organizational mind, her thorough manner of keeping all teams in understanding and agreement of tasks but her sunny diplomacy means even meetings at the tail end of a heavy production are a pleasure. – Toby Anthonisz – Creative Lead, Oliv. NY

 

I had the pleasure of working with Sherry in early 2007 in conjunction with the planning and shoot of a 30 second commercial spot for CBOE’s first ever corporate branding campaign and have kept in touch with her ever since. Sherry was the production manager of the project, managing all aspects of the shoot on site as well as pre-shoot planning and post-shoot follow up. I found her to be thrifty and efficient with the budget, a valuable contributor ont he creative side and extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the process. I believe her work ethic, attention to detail and the extent of her experience in the creative arena would make her a valuable asset to any organization’s marketing program. – Lisa Morano – CBOE

 

In 1987, when I started my film and video production company, we were fortunate enough to have Sherry as our first employee. Her dedication, attention to detail and overall talent were instrumental in helping us get our company successfully launched during those critical years. In fact, looking back at those days, I’m not sure we could have done it without her. Sherry managed dozens of critical projects for us and produced each commercial and corporate communications assignment with a level of thoroughness and enthusiasm that always left clients, freelancers and suppliers feeling great about being a part of our productions. She is a team player and team leader that always delivers on time and on budget. Since then Sherry has gone on to an equally successful career of her own and we have been fortunate to secure her talents and a free lance producer and consultant on a range of projects for high profile clients including her organization of a million dollar media campaign developed for the Ford Motor Company featuring CEO Bill Ford. Throughout those years, weʼ ve also called on Sherry to provide us with her expertise and advice in selecting the best support talent and companies for other clients and projects. And her suggestions have never failed to be right on the mark. So I would highly recommend Sherry to any company looking for a dedicated professional that will be a great asset to their organization.  – Marius Penczer – Creative Director – Penczer Media

 

“Sherry worked as Marketing Director for Castleway Properties based mostly in Philadelphia from about September 2007 until about June 2008. I am an owner of Castleway Properties and she reported to me on a day to day basis during that time. Although she was not an employee she was very much an integral part of the team. Her two primary assignments were to provide tactical oversight and detailed execution of all marketing functions for two significant real estate developments in Philadelphia. In addition she master-minded the public relations aspects of the zoning campaign for the Rittenhouse Square site. Her roles on these projects were very broad ranging and included both trraditional and non-traditional strategic, marketing leadership and public relations activity. She is utterly dependable and trustworthy. She has an acute ability to grasp what is important from a strategic point of view and then to develop solutions that create and maximise value. Sherry is a real team player and although she can act independently, she never gets too far ahead of the rest of the team. She is appreciated by team members for her energy and enthusiasm and is always calm under pressure. I find it hard to identify weaknesses with Sherry’s delivery or skill sets. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Sherry for any position involving sales, marketing, business development, public relations.” – Jim Osbourne – Managing Director – Castleway Properties

“When it comes to broadcast production, Sherry gets it, bringing an experienced point of view to a project. Sherry manages the schedules, budgets and personalities, including clients, associated with broadcast production effectively. I first worked with Sherry on a complex television commercial production. She managed all fees and out-of-pocket expenses associated with the project, working with our internal accounting resource to ensure that all details were handled. Most importantly, Sherry suggested a music resource that successfully created a soundtrack when others hadn’t nailed it. Since then Sherry has worked on half a dozen other projects for both Flow Creative and GyroHSR. Along the way, she’s developed and nurtured relationships with celebrity talent and introduced me and others at the agency to new production companies that have helped to make our work better.” – Peter Zapf – Managing Director – Flow Creative

Dear Sherry, I’ve written this recommendation of your work to share with other LinkedIn users. “Sherry was the freelance producer on a number of commercial projects with me.

She’s engaging and creative, always built great working relationships with the creative team to understand the end goal, then worked with the production company to actualize all the ‘impossible’ ideas; and finally, she’s an amazing problem solver. Great results, personable and creative.” – Thomas Prather – Account Director – BE&P
