His experience is global as Salmon played an integral role in the domestic and international management of such well-known brands as Maker's Mark and Hpnotiq Liqueur. Salmon oversaw the development and implementation of the global marketing and sales strategies for both brands, which resulted in both brands far exceeding company goals and expectations.
