"Joakim is a smart and driven media and creative professional. He works well with both CEOs and C-level leaders and operational folks at Fortune 500 companies and beyond. We worked together on the [a]-list summit as well as on VidCon, where he is speaking in June!"
"Joakim is one of the sharpest minds in the digital entertainment industry. He has provided great insight, analysis and advice and has introduced us to many exciting companies & individuals. Joakim has a great combo of media and tech savvyness which is very rarely found in the entertainment industry. He also is a all-round terrific guy and I can recommend him whole-heartedly."
"I've hired Joakim on several occasions because he possesses a wide-range of skills, is professional, timely, personable, delivers good results - and always brings a little extra to a project. When working with us on IKEA's groundbreaking "Easy to Assemble" web series, Joakim was a key member of our team, bringing brand-partners, social-oriented content and a very smart social engagement strategy to help make it one of the most successful and recognized branded entertainment plays of 2010.
Another IKEA project, this time for the Russian market, Joakim delivered key-talent, produced both great strategy and creative content, and helped drive the project under extremely challenging circumstances. With IKEA's innovative Playreport social campaign, Joakim's input on social strategy helped build audience share up 50% in a very short period of time. Joakim's energy and knowledge have been an important contributing factor to the success of all of these projects and I look forward to working with Joakim in the future.
"Joakim is a pleasure to work with. Even under tight deadlines, Joakim remains the consummate professional and maintains his pleasant disposition. We have published two books together, done interviews together, and have participated in numerous trade events. On all occasions our team has found Joakim to be great to work with and one who delivers a quality experience for his readers. We look forward to any project with Joakim."
