I have the skills and experience to take on projects within marketing, social media, event planning, public relations, website management, and web design. Music is a big passion of mine which led me to recently pursue and complete the Artist Management Professional Certificate at Berklee College of Music with a 4.0 GPA.

"Sal has done extensive work for me over the years, including marketing, press release, and red carpet events involved in major label projects of mine. He is attentive, knowledgeable in all areas, and has a creative approach to each "project" he takes on. Sal has always been genuinely involved and connected to the work he's taken on, and a very valuable partner and asset in meeting the goals that we set out to achieve. He definitely has a knack to go above and beyond."
"Watching Sal build the Ultra V Network has been impressive. In this super-competitive age of constant attention and avalanches of distraction, Sal has held steady, preferring the solid strategy of favoring the best new content over temporary traffic boosters. Every time we correspond I am pleased by his mix of professionalism and friendliness. It's like we've been friends a long time even though we've never actually met in person!"
"Sal is a rare talent who has "figure it out and get it done right" DNA and learns fast. His strong interpersonal and team-building skills are exceptional. Any organization would be lucky to have Sal on their team! I would hire him again in a minute!"
"Sal's well-organized, detail-oriented work has been a fantastic addition to our Communications team. He's unusually adept at spotting needed process improvements and then putting improvements into place. He's also adaptable, working well in a fast-paced environment where the deliverables can change on a dime. (And the sometimes crazy pace of those projects has been made more tolerable thanks to Sal's good-natured personality!) I recommend Sal for any position that requires an organized and creative thinker with strong follow-through."
I’ve had the great pleasure of working closely with Sal Cannata since he first began with Envolve PeopleCare in 2015, joining MCAP (Marketing Communications & Partnerships). Rising very quickly with his talents from a temp to a full time team mate in just a little over one year, Sal soon became one of our department’s go-to heroes. From assembling health plan member and provider communications (both launches and ongoing), to portal builds, he’s also been a trusted second set of eyes proofing many a newsletter and blog series...
"Sal is incredible to work with! He worked wonders with our website development, logo design, social media, and marketing. He took the reigns and was, and still is, with us every step of the way. He is a true professional and takes pride in his work."
"I have the pleasure of working with Sal at ThinkitDrinkIt. Sal is not only highly creative and has a huge amount of expertise in web design, blogging, marketing and social media, he also puts his talents into action, rolls up his sleeves and gets things done. He's the perfect combination and is a positive light on a sometimes rocky road. He is a true gem and I look forward to continued collaboration."
"Creative is an understatement when working with Sal. His attention to detail and follow through in implementing special events for social media, blogging as well as his web design design skills are beyond merit."
"A very smart young marketer. He is hard working, professional, creative in his ideas and gets on well in any team. His expertise in communications, promotion and content marketing were instrumental in elevating the brand's presence, visibility and image with relevant audiences. He sees the big picture without losing site of the details and is a pleasure to work with. Sal would be an asset to any company lucky enough to hire him."
"Sal is a great website designer and copywriter. He is of great value for a company to his expertise to assist their efforts in marketing or public relationship. He is a pleasant individual so he is great to work with as a team member."
I have extensive experience using social media, email marketing, affiliate marketing, and SEO to increase brand exposure. These techniques have played a key role in my contributions toward award winning projects.
Running a productive blog goes a long way. Including the right content that is informative, relatable, and unique is important in maintaining consistent and progressive analytics. This approach has led to increased networking with popular companies and public figures.
I love getting down to the nitty gritty of a project subject matter to understand the many aspects of it and figuring out logical and creative approaches that can lead to optimal results and unique opportunities.
Delving into the media world has opened up sensible opportunities to take on clients in a PR setting. This is my way of taking advantage of every opportunity given to me and using my industry contacts as a springboard for client placements.
I am proficient in both PC and Mac operating systems and well-versed in applications such as MS Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access), Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, Lightroom, Premiere Pro, After Affects), WordPress, Workfront, Shopify, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, Pinterest, Tumblr and LinkedIn.
I'm a big fan of music and I love discovering new acts. My passion for music discovery led me to create NXTSTYLE, a website highlighting rising talent in music and beyond. In 2020, I launched two large scale music features, The NEXT 100 and Songs of the Summer, interviewing over 100 artists combined. In addition I curate The NEXT in Music playlist which has been featured on Indiemono and international streaming platform Whyd. Many of the tracks I submit on Whyd hit the top 10 on their charts, including #1, all based on user interaction (likes and playlist adds) within the platform. In April 2013 and January 2015 the company interviewed me for their blog to get my thoughts on a variety of music-related topics including Underground Playlist, my website name at the time. Follow my website and personal account on Whyd for a sample of my music taste!
