Demand Media Loses Chief Revenue Officer

Santa Monica-based Demand Media has lost its Chief Revenue Officer, Jeff Dossett, to startup Porch.com, only eight months after Dossett was named to the position after the loss of former Chief Revenue and Marketing Officer Bradford. According to Porch.com--which operates an online site which helps homeowners explore and get information on remodeling projects, including peeking into their neighbor's projects and costs--Dossett will join the company in Seattle to head up all its profit and revenue responsibilities. Porch's founders are split between Seattle and Southern California. Dossett (who has summitted Mount Everest two times) was also previously CEO of Pasadena-based AdventureLink, and also served at Yahoo! and Microsoft.
