Brian G. Bearden

Brian Bearden, CEO of Upstream Marketing helps his clients to determine their target market and how to best reach them. Before starting his online marketing and web development career in 2001, he worked for several Fortune 500 companies handling marketing and sales initiatives.

His 20 years of experience with Fortune 500 companies have given him a unique perspective on business management and sales. Many of the tools and much of the marketing and sales development training available at that level can have profound benefits for small- and medium-sized businesses. Being the CEO of Upstream Marketing gives him the opportunity to share his experience to the benefit of his clients and the community.

Brian and his team of designers and programmers work with startups to multi-national companies. Upstream Marketing as the name implies specializes in working with industrial, oil and gas companies.  With over 15 years’ experience with oil and gas companies, Upstream Marketing is a leader in industrial online marketing.

He wrote a book titled 52 Tips To Turn Your Website Into A Sales Machine which became an Amazon Best Seller.  His goal behind the book was to help business owners understand the power of online marketing.

When he is not strategizing with business owners about their business or glued to his computer screen, he spends time gardening, fishing, reading the latest sales and marketing books, and spoiling his wife and their many nieces and nephews.
