Omar Colón Automotive Marketing Leader in Puerto Rico

Bringing Enterprise-Level Marketing Leadership to Puerto Rico

After building and leading automotive marketing initiatives across the continental U.S., I’m intentionally focused on contributing my experience to organizations in Puerto Rico.

The market presents a unique opportunity — one that benefits from modern marketing leadership, disciplined performance measurement, and teams aligned to long-term growth rather than short-term tactics.

My goal is simple: help automotive organizations build marketing operations that scale, perform, and earn executive trust.

Omar brought an awesomely positive attitude and professional demeanor to every task he took on while working as the Web Management and Analytics team lead at Aronson Advertising. He kept his team on task, hit deadlines, and delivered impressive results for our clients day in and day out. On a personal level, I came to rely on Omar as a mentor of sorts as he offered advice and counsel in my first year of managing a team of content writers. I can honestly say that without Omar to help guide me, I would have been lost. I really can’t thank Omar enough for all the assistance he gave me.

Omar teaches me to better understand how our digital ad campaigns will help our clients “get in the way” of more sales. He is patient, as he describes the digital resources available. He is able to take the complexities of the digital media world and translate them to me as benefits…so I can better educate our clients…so our clients can capitalize on their investments in digital media.
