Derek Chew is the Founder and CEO of Fullmoon Digital and a digital marketing guru. After graduating from Indiana University in 2000 with a bachelor’s in Computer Science and Telecommunications he moved on to study business and marketing at the University of Phoenix. After starting out as a Senior Developer in 2000, he went on to open FMDM in 2017.
Great Leaders are Hard to Come by
Being an agency owner during a global pandemic is not exactly the easiest job in the world. Derek has done an excellent job of supporting his employees through honest communication, flexibility, and support. Good leadership is something he strives for and he succeeds every day. “Take care of your team and they will take care of you,” he likes to say.
He is also spending a lot of his time giving back to the community through his business. Working with VETS2INDUSTRY as his introduction to nonprofits opened his eyes to helping even more charities. Utilizing Google Grants to help nonprofits get their message out seems especially important right now during the COVID-19 outbreak.
Surviving and Thriving
Planning to work with his clients is the way Derek wants to move forward. Most companies will experience a need to reduce costs if they are not already. By allowing clients to delay payments, and working with them on their cost reductions, Mr. Chew hopes to eventually build lasting relationships. Moving forward he hopes that the world can go back to thriving.
