Freeman Yang
I live and breathe marketing, and have gained extensive experience across various marketing practices and industries. Since holding the reins of the Marketing Team at SixteenO’s Art Bar, my energies have been focused towards leading every step of its operations from planning to execution. I am well versed in executing marketing strategies and campaigns via digital and traditional channels - from overseeing creative processes throughout social media and CMS systems, to managing client engagement processes and facilitating business collaborations. Planning budgets and pricing are my other key responsibilities, which is a big job that requires me to communicate cross-functionally across all levels of the organisation. You’ll see me running around between art events across Adelaide, in which I am involved in the planning and organisation in one way or the other!
Ron Tan
I am a passionate marketer at heart. Previously having a background in science, I later found out my interests lie in marketing. The plan was to pursue further education and try to build a career in this field - and here I am! SixteenO’s Art Bar’s Marketing Team has moulded me into an all-rounder, as I am involved in all marketing channels and practices. Besides being involved in executing marketing campaigns and strategies, I am well versed in establishing business collaborations and facilitating client engagement. Digital Marketing has been my main focus, from website management including CRM & CMS systems to social media and ecommerce platforms. I am also no stranger to event coordination, in which I truly enjoy being involved in organising our art events!
