OrderMyGear hired Dave Hanson as chief strategy officer. As CSO, Hanson will be responsible for helping OrderMyGear scale its operations and expand the reach of its platform into new sectors of team sports and online group ordering. Hanson will manage sales, marketing, business development, client management, human resources, and communications and will report to OrderMyGear’s CEO Len Critcher.

“Dave is a great leader whose strategy will help scale OrderMyGear’s operations,” said Critcher. “He has relevant experience and a track record of scaling operations and building new business. Dave understands OrderMyGear’s goal of providing best in class software to improve the way our customers process group orders and is passionate about building a business that will enable us to realize our mission.”

“I’m excited to be joining OrderMyGear and contribute to our focus on building great platforms and providing world-class service,” said Hanson who was an early seed-round investor in the company. “Together with Len and the fantastic team at OMG, we’ll be able to scale this company as leading platform to connect dealers and brands to team sports and other groups.”

Hanson joins OrderMyGear after four years at eCarList, another startup venture led by CEO Critcher, where Hanson served as executive vice president of Interactive. In that role, he built and managed eCarList’s interactive division prior to the company being acquired by Dealertrack (TRAK) in 2011. Post-acquisition, Hanson continued at the company in an executive leadership capacity responsible for the company’s website, search, social, and mobile products. Prior to eCarList, Hanson spent nearly ten years at Yahoo serving in numerous roles including most recently as the Director of Global Brand Marketing.
