“I’ve known and relied on Randall’s counsel for over 15 years as I tried to figure out how to stay one step - but not too many steps - ahead of the industry over the course of building and running several different businesses. Randall is a strategist who is always thinking two to three moves ahead in an industry where most people are playing checkers. Moreover, he’s a person of incredible integrity -says what he means and does what he says. Randall is always one of my first calls whenever I embark on a new venture or need to make a big pivot with an existing business.”

“Randall is one of the most insightful and thoughtful people I have met in the digital marketing industry. I could always count on him for fresh thinking and broad perspective on where the puck is heading. He synthesizes input from a variety of people, sources and studies and turns them into remarkably accurate predictions about consumer and marketer trends. Furthermore, Randall may be the smartest person in the room but he is a humble and kind human who makes everyone feel at ease.”

“Do you know someone who was born to inspire? This is Randall. It was almost 10 years working remotely and, even so, realizing the impact of his speeches and positions. Randall inspires, moves, provokes so that no day is the same.”

“As former Chairman of the Board of the Directors of the Association of National Advertisers and Chief Marketing Officer of Fidelity Investments, I had the opportunity to work with Randy to address a number of significant issues facing the advertising and media industries. His collaborative style of leadership, intellect, communication skills and grasp of the issues resulted in the establishment of industry-wide standards and significant improvements in the advertising and media ecosystems that have benefited advertisers, publishers and technology partners. His depth of experience and understanding of the media industry would be an asset to any organization looking for assistance.”

'“I’ve had the privilege of working with Randall for nearly 10 years and have benefited immensely from his leadership, insight, candor, generosity and friendship. Despite consistently being the most well-researched and well-versed person in the room on a given industry topic, Randall possesses a genuine intellectual humility and curiosity that allows him to see around corners and spot trends that others are unable to see. He's always been a bit of an industry oracle in that way and this skill is especially useful in an industry as dynamic as the digital advertising industry. I witnessed this first-hand with his vision for and leadership in initiatives like the invention of the Newfronts, creation of the Tech Lab, the Direct Brand Economy DTC research and the Internet for Growth campaign. Over the years, Randall has proven to be an invaluable strategic advisor who has a unique ability to cut through the noise and provide sound, data-driven counsel on a range of advertising, business, tech, and policy topics.”

“I have had the true honor and pleasure of working with Randall for many years, primarily in his capacity as CEO of the IAB. The success of digital advertising didn't just happen, it took a tremendous amount of hard work and thoughtful effort, and Randall contributed more than his fair share. As a leading voice for the development of digital advertising and the shift from more traditional media to digital means, Randall set the tone for a professional and strategic approach to this industry and continues to this day to lead with intellect and curiosity that reaches far beyond any job or role. Randall is a class act and he will be successful in any company with which he is involved.”
