Dave Kerpen, Chief Buzz Officer

davehead1paradiseDave Kerpen's history of buzz began even before he graduated from Boston University. As a stadium vendor, he raised sales of the stadium's lowest selling product Crunch n Munch by 400%, through the concept of thematic vending. When he graduated, he became the top seller at the Boston Radio Disney station, before leaving to form his own company, Dave Kerpen Strategic Consulting. He created the concept of "Grander Openings"- taking a Grand Opening event and making it even "grander". Whatever project Dave is working on, he has attracted mass media attention- whether it's training thematic vendors for Guinness, planning a multicultural collaboration in Queens, or simply getting married on a baseball field in front of thousands. 







Caroline Kerpen, Vice President,
New Buzzness Development

beefaceCaroline Kerpen began her career as an Intern at Radio Disney in Boston, and helped to launch the station on its very first day! She then worked for the station's top client, Stop & Shop Supermarkets, leading their Kids Marketing Program. Next she moved to Polaroid, launching the IZone Camera, 1999's #1 selling camera in the country! In 2001, she returned to Radio Disney, where she was the top seller of Disney stations across the United States. She then went on to manage Long Island's #1 Hit Music Station 106.1 BLI. A long career in traditional media, Caroline's first foray into BUZZ was through her wedding to longtime Buzz Builder Dave Kerpen. She is a proud mommy of two little bees, and is considered the "Queen Bee" of the Kerpen home. 





Chris Fuchs, Director, Buzz Builder Network
Concept Creator

chrisChris Fuchs rocks. He rocks so hard that he grew from a Buzz Builder role while attending Baruch College, to being hired as a Senior Buzz Builder upon graduation, to being promoted to Director of the Buzz Builder network in 2008. Upon accepting the position, Chris was charged with "building" our Buzz Builder network...doubling its size of the program to have dozens of dedicated researchers working on behalf of our clients.  In addition to successfully making our Buzz Builder Network one of the most competitive internship programs in the marketing/advertising industry, he has decided to focus on the Concepts division of theKbuzz. Chris is an unfortunateYankees fan amongst a sea of Mets fans at theKbuzz. He shares his birthday with St. Patty's Day, and, as a result, theKbuzz has declared St. Patrick's Day to be an official theKbuzz holiday-- where we all celebrate the birth of the Director of the Buzz Builder Network!

Chuck Steinmann, Buzz Manager
Conversation Starter

chuck

Chuck is one of the few people who has the energy level and event talent to match the company's founder, Dave Kerpen. theKbuzz first fell in love with Chuck when he led the Canada Tourism buzz patrol team-- he literally got on his knees and proposed to thousands of women on the streets of New York City as part of CT's diamond ring giveaway. Chuck's previous promotional experience as a film and television promoter, and as a page for The Late Show with David Letterman made him a perfect candidate to lead theKbuzz's Conversation Division through the recruitment and training of our talented Buzz Patrol, since he believes strongly that the best form of marketing is face-to-face, person-to-person contact. Want a fun Chuck fact? He has played the bass guitar for 10 years!
