One of the things we’re most proud of here at Benchmark is our international presence. It’s not rare to walk around the office and see a new friendly face visiting from the furthest reaches of the planet or to regularly have Skype calls at odd hours of the night. Email is global and so are we. Our CEO, Curt Keller, recently visited our offices in Japan. The team there sat down with Curt for an interview. It was a good time and interesting to hear and we thought we’d share it with all of you. It’s in English (in case you press play and are surprised that you can understand Japanese). Enjoy!

Andy Shore found his way to Benchmark when he replied to a job listing promising a job of half blogging, half social media. His parents still don’t believe that people get paid to do that. Since then, he’s spun his addiction to pop culture and passion for music into business and marketing posts that are the spoonful of sugar that helps the lessons go down. As the result of his boss not knowing whether or not to take him seriously, he also created the web series Ask Andy, which stars a cartoon version of himself. Despite being a cartoon, he somehow manages to be taken seriously by many of his readers ... and few of his coworkers.
