Meet Adam Johnson, Patch's New Advertising Manager

Adam is the new advertising manager for Edmonds, Woodinville, Redmond, Kirkland, Bellevue, Mercer Island, Sammamish-Issaquah, and Shoreline-Lake Forest Park. But he's not new to the Puget Sound.

So you're excited about Patch and want to know how to use it to benefit your business or organization ... the man who can lend a hand is Patch Advertising Manager Adam Johnson.

Adam will be able to help you if you’re interested in Edmonds, Woodinville, Redmond, Kirkland, Bellevue, Mercer Island, Sammamish-Issaquah and Shoreline-Lake Forest Park.

We're happy to welcome Adam to our team. He'll be your best resource when you are interested in advertising, so we thought you should know more about him.

Adam was born and raised in Puget Sound, a graduate of Tyee in Sea-Tac, then attended college at Florida University International. After college Adam joined the Air Force. He now lives in West Seattle with his wife and two young sons.

Since he was a kid, Adam has been involved in team sports. He competed on dozens of soccer fields, baseball diamonds and basketball courts throughout the Eastside all through high school. He’s never lost that passion for sports, particularly the Seahawks, Mariners and Sounders.

Always working toward making himself the best partner in advertising, emphasizing character, integrity, reliability, professionalism and true salesmanship, Adam has built a network of satisfied clients throughout his nine-year professional career in online advertising sales.

Patch: As an advertising manager, what's the best part of your job? 

Johnson: Being a key part in the development of our business community. 

Patch: What's the best way for people to contact you about advertising on Patch? 

Johnson: Email is the most immediate: adam.johnson@patch.com and directly via phone at 206-214-8097.

Patch: What do you find special about Patch? 

Johnson: Before Patch, it was very difficult for small- to medium-sized businesses to efficiently reach their local target audience through the Internet. The mega-companies have been leveraging cutting-edge technologies and media teams to hyper-target their message, allowing them to appear as the local resource, whereas the true local businesses we're left with less options, primarily the more outdated advertising mediums.

Patch has changed this. Patch now allows local,  small-to-medium-sized businesses to reach their exact audience, without wasting impressions, within a budget respectful of small businesses and not needing to battle for prime online real estate with the national brands.

Patch: What are your personal interests? What do you love about Washington the most?

Washington is my home; that’s what I love most. I am avid in sports, both as a fan and as a player. I enjoy a highly competitive game of soccer, basketball or football, with a grand appreciation for the values that make for successful teams and individuals: camaraderie, passion, drive, desire, integrity, honor and commitment.

That is true about Citypark being in a lot of shade. Where's the skateboard park? Possibly a spotRead More at Edmonds Marina Beach??

Cassy said on Facebook (sorry to those having trouble logging in today!): Would love to have aRead More splash pad and yes please move it so it is in the full sun. If you are going to have a splash pad we need to take advantage of the sunshine.

A splash pad would be great, but that space is so shady - maybe next to the skateboard park instead.Read More

It sucks! Its confusing to follow.

If you want to know what it's like to have your religion disrespected, try having school camps,Read More orchestra and band concerts and back-to-school nights on the holiest of your religious holidays (equivalent to Christmas and Easter). Everyone knows that an egg hunt is an Easter event whether it's called that or not. Everyone know that a holiday tree is really a Christmas tree. Trust me, the atheists and/or non-Christians are not trying to destroy Christianity. First, it would be impossible. Second, it would be too dangerous to us personally. Last, I personally respect other's traditions, but I'm not sure the same can always be said in reverse.

Don't we have more important things to worry about? Easter Egg, Egg Hunt, who cares? It's a funRead More community event. And thank you to the sponsers that make this happen.

First of all, the government is not supposed to promote any religion. Secondly, the Easter bunnyRead More and egg hunt has no historical religious significance that I can think of, even though this is part of an American tradition. I am good with deleting the word Easter, and would like to see a departure from any emphasis on candy, which only compounds the diabetic epidemic in this country. Sometimes it is good to rethink the wisdom of something simply because it is a "tradition".
