brauner

I'm Larry Brauner. I live with my family in the Lower Hudson Valley about 35 miles northwest of New York City. I'm a business analyst. I develop marketing and customer retention models for a Fortune 1000 telecom. More friendly than geeky, I'm a success coach. I mentor and teach people, especially mothers and baby boomers, business, networking, Web 2.0, branding and marketing. I maintain an audio training site, SocialNetworkingProject.com, and a blog, www.Online-Social-Networking.com. I was in the Top 200 of Excel Communications when Excel closed in 2004. I'm happy to report that I have since moved on to bigger and better things. From 1978 to 2001 I held a variety of positions at Eric Marder Associates, www.EricMarder.com, a prestigious marketing research firm. I computerized the business and refined many research and operational processes. I collaborated with Eric Marder on The Laws of Choice. Mr. Marder wrote in his acknowledgements that I "did the computer work, consolidating studies and generating new analyses as required. He was my severest critic. I felt confident that if I could persuade Larry of something, I would be able to persuade just about anyone else. His contribution was invaluable." My many non-professional accomplishments include: completed high school math at 15 and began my computer studies (1967), #16 US Junior Chess Player (1971), top US player and teacher of the oriental Go game (1976-1981), New York City Marathon finisher (1984 & 1985). I also achieved a basic level of proficiency in cello (1986) and the ancient Talmud (1992) — undertaking both as an adult.
