Rob Duffin's Linkedin Analytics

Hi, I’m Rob. I help create nimble business foundations and an engaging work culture that puts core values into action. My decade+ of high-growth startup experience enables me to quickly identify growth ceilings and implement solutions based on the needs of the business and team. As a cofounder at Mixtape Social Music, I bring my music industry experience and startup experience to shape go to market strategies that align with user feedback and solve age-old industry needs. At Med Water Systems I helped to take a wild west startup environment and shape it into a scalable business foundation with reliable processes around accounting, communication, manufacturing, team development, HR, business strategy, leadership, and technology platforms. Previously, as COO at Influencer Inc, I focussed on operations, company growth, culture, and leading our team. Our offerings include coaching, online courses, and personal branding events that help turn executives into thought-leaders. Prior to Influencer Inc, I helped to grow SilencerCo from various parts of the company. As Purchasing Agent, I developed all processes around purchasing, negotiations, vendor relations, and coordinating with managers to meet production needs. During my 3 years as Purchasing Agent, SilencerCo grew from $4 million in sales to over $30 million. In 2014, I was promoted to VP of Culture, and designed various employee programs around HR, training and development, and employee events. In addition to the standard HR functions of managing employee benefits, payroll, and compensation management, my HR team built unique policies and procedures from the ground up to support management, foster trust, and enable rapid expansion of our workforce. One of my main focuses as VP of Culture was to engage employees in our unique culture and link each position to our core values. Some of these initiatives included events that rooted employees in our core values, education programs, and strategic performance incentives. These strategies created a performance culture founded upon communication, transparency, advocacy, and innovation. When I’m not working, I’m known to sing loudly to punk rock music and probably spend too much time listening to Star Wars podcasts. I’m a husband to an amazing wife and father to four children who also love Star Wars.
