Ken Lempit | President

Ken brings a “ring the bell” mentality to B2B marketing that is needed in today’s “measure everything” world. His early career in technology and enterprise sales has led him to continually innovate at the intersection of high-tech and marketing, helping his clients succeed from the web to the sales call.

Long before the term inbound marketing was coined, Ken introduced blogging, analytics, pay-for-performance and web content management to a wide range of B2B financial services, professional services and high-tech clients. Forward-thinking, creative solutions continue to be a hallmark of the solutions he proposes for his clients.

More than two decades of experience in advertising, public relations and marketing for clients from pre-launch to Global 50 in size have helped Ken to emerge as a recognized expert in the art and science of B2B marketing. As president of Austin Lawrence Group (ALG), he repositioned the boutique agency from traditional integrated marketing communications to services focused on driving opportunity via the web: strategy consulting, inbound marketing and creative implementation.

Ken has a BS in marketing and MIS from Syracuse University.
