Wikipedia
Alex has been part of the Wikipedia community since 2010. He enjoys editing the works of others and enhancing it with his own knowledge and experience. He created this profile in 2014 and updates it once a month. The most annoying part of editing pages are internet trolls who claim to know everything and make revisions to your edits. Wikipedia should be a reliable source based on research and facts. People go here to learn the latest info and buzz about the things they like. If there is one inaccurate fact on here, it throws everyone off. Everyone is entitled to contribution and Alex Noudelman believes that no info should not be deleted just because someone thinks it's irrelevant. Content is King!

Views on Marketing
Alex sees marketing in today's world as no longer being a mass appeal that fit's every style; it’s a one on one relationship that has to be meaningful to the consumers and the target market. It has to play on the experience and the emotion that the product or service brings to the interested consumer. Whether it is branding or search engine marketing, today’s potential customer has more information available, more quickly and Alex Noudelman is focused on creating that valuable experience that creates mindshare one person at a time.

Politics
Alex is very much involved in politics. The federal elections of fall of 2014 are getting very heated and Alex is watching it very closely. In particular, Alex is concerned about the senate and the fact that they are not accountable to the people. We are in the midst of the senate scandal and taxpayer money was abused; a big concern for Alex. If a common person ever did what Mike Duffy did, we would be in jail and having to pay back every penny with interest. The worst part of it all is that the crew is backing each other up in hopes no one finds out that they were sleeping on the job.

He's not happy with Justin Trudeau and his focus on Syria only. His focus should be mainly on Canadians whom he promised to help by boosting their quality of life. He's done nothing yet so far to reduce taxes for the working class as well as give parents more income to help with their children.
