The Journey to Dreww

2007

First Facebook Business – the spark

At 15, Andrew and 3 of his buddies started producing “freestyle” skiing videos under the name N*J*W*A. Their videos eventually gained numerous likes and shares, leading them to create t-shirts and stickers to sell at school and even online through a small e-commerce website they created.

2010

Briefly Studies Commerce at John Abbott College

After a successful first semester at John Abbott College, Andrew already knew he was ready for other challenges.

2011

As a digital native, Andrew had already acquired a deep understanding of social, and the strengths, weaknesses and potential of different approaches and platforms to propel consumer brands past the clutter and into the conversation.

2013

First Steps into the publishing world

Andrew took his first steps into the publishing world as a Co-Founder and Editor-in-Chief of CanadaNightlife.ca where he wrote editorial articles that were shared on Facebook to generate traffic to the website. It was this experience that showed him the true power of social media when it came to diffusing a message to the general public.

2015

Director of Marketing of Beachclub

Andrew was involved in the business strategy to make Olivier Primeau the face of the brand and turn him into an online celebrity. The highly successful strategy included a worldwide public relations stunt to have Kylie Jenner celebrate her 18th birthday at Beachclub.

Launched in early 2018, the new company, a film production studio, worked in parallel with AMJ Media Inc, to produce commercials, mini-documentaries and web-series for brands.

Audacieux was produced by Illico Videotron and documents Olivier Primeau’s life and social media success and includes Andrew’s thoughts and marketing strategy throughout.

Andrew Nominated in Infopresse’s 30 under 30

In March 2020, Andrew was nominated by Infopresse on their list of 30 people under 30 inspiring the future of the media and marketing industry in Quebec, Canada.

Nous sommes très satisfaits de nos collaborations avec Andrew. Audacieux et efficace, Andrew est doté d’un bel instinct qui l’amène à réfléchir au-delà des tendances et des sentiers battus, générant par la même occasion des idées novatrices qui se démarquent. Cette créativité est aussi dotée d’un sens aigu de l’organisation, car il assure aussi une réalisation impeccable de ses projets. J’ai pu constater également qu’il savait mobiliser et motiver ses équipes. À cet effet, il est clairement la preuve que le leadership n’attend pas la somme des années. Grâce au travail d’Andrew, la marque Loto-Québec a pu rayonner à quelques occasions, notamment lors du lancement de la loterie Grande Vie. Je le recommande sans hésiter pour vos projets.

Relationship: Supplier

I believe that it is Andrew’s ability to read people and his genuine interest in the human mind that give him a perfect vantage point to see and understand what his client’s market wants, and deliver it to them. There are a lot of things an entrepreneur can successfully or seamlessly fake, but real curiosity about the human psyche is not one of them. Andrew has that inquisitiveness and puts it to great use, whether it be in marketing, film production or as an artist agent. Also, what is most impressive about Andrew: he is not interested in success for the sake of it. He clearly wants to impact other people’s lives and make the collectivity benefit from his hard work. Mark my words, everything Andrew will touch over the next few years will turn to gold, and one could only hope to be along with him for the ride.

One sure thing is that influencers campaigns are THE thing right now. However, how many brands really have impact using such strategies? Not so many. Most of the time, you can feel its product placement. This is something Andrew & the team managed perfectly. We made sure our campaign was going to be relevant for our consumers and strike their imagination. Having impact. By making sure all our partners and creators posted quality content, the same day at the same time, we flooded Quebec’s Instagram’s pages with amazing images and captions of delicious looking ciders. A few days into the campaign, we’re already seeing results on the field! Bigger orders from retailers, amazing feedbacks from consumers and many more apples in Quebec’s houses. Summer can now begin!

Andrew is a motivated entrepreneur driven by initiative and opportunity. His rapid and refined growth of expertise in the social marketing domain is a testament to his creative talent. As CEO of CogniSens Inc., the creators of NeuroTracker, a world leading technology in cognitive training, I had the opportunity of working closely with Andrew. With his publicist team, Andrew executed a North American public relations campaign for us during the 2017 Super Bowl, where MVP QB Matt Ryan, was an avid user of NeuroTracker. The earned media coverage Andrew generated for us via a viral video on Facebook generated millions of dollars in media coverage value, most notably being the interview he booked for us which resulted in Fox News presenting a 3 minute cameo of NeuroTracker during the Super Bowl pregame show - a priceless media opportunity! Having the opportunity of seeing Andrew grow up over the last 15 years, I take great pride in acting as one of Andrew’s many mentors. I am confident he will continue to do great things over the course of his career.

I have worked with Andrew for over 10 years on various entrepreneurial and corporate projects. He has demonstrated incredible marketing savvy and innovation. I co-founded CanadaNightlife.ca with Andrew about 8 years ago, where he quickly took over and lead the entire product and marketing. Andrew grew the website from a small blog to an online magazine with thousands of monthly visitors with dozens of partners and writers. Since then I’ve worked with him on other projects where he has brought leadership and experience in marketing and production to the table. This list would not be complete without someone as dedicated and skilled as Andrew.
