Our Marketing Team Is Growing (& How You Can Help!)

We’re going to get personal for a second: While the past two years have been filled with changes and challenges in the form of navigating a global pandemic, working remotely, and balancing work and home life (at the same time!), we’ve leaned on our teammates to support us through the hard times, cheer us on through the challenges, and give us some good laughs to lighten the moments that have been pretty rough for almost everyone.

Over the last year, especially, our team has accomplished some really exciting things together—and we know that will only continue through 2022 and beyond, as we keep striving to be THE digital marketing platform local businesses can rely on to grow.

So we’re super excited to bring in some new teammates to help us reach our goals and have some fun along the way. Read on for our open roles + what some of our lovely teammates have to say about why they love our team.
