In these very difficult times (anybody else start crying when they realize how many of their family, friends and pets have passed on? Oh, well, some of us are obviously more sensitive…) it cheers the heart to get lovely news. Especially when that news is about an open slot that was a Job Alert. Out Seattle way comes the happy announcement that TEKLE BISHAW has joined the marketing efforts of KING 5 (and KONG) as their new Marketing Analyst. I’ll let Director of Marketing JAY YOVANOVICH share the details.  “Tekle comes to us from McClatchy, where he’s supported both B2B (Business to business) & B2C (Business to consumer) initiatives in the journalism sector.This is a new role for the KING 5 marketing department, as we continue to leverage data to inform us on ever-changing market dynamics and audience behaviors. Tekle will work inter-departmentally as well with Sales/Research, News and Digital to enhance our knowledge on target audiences across platforms.” Jay, always the A+ creative, shared fun facts about his new hire, who begins August 17. Tekle speaks English and Amharic (Ethiopian), he attended two colleges and he’s not a real fan of heights. Tekle…you’re getting a huge Well Dunne!
