From Running Campaigns to Building Teams
We've managed millions in spend. Launched hundreds of campaigns. Fixed accounts others couldn't crack. Now we use that experience to find the best talent.
Our Story
After 7+ years running paid media campaigns, we noticed something broken about recruitment in our industry. Recruiters would send us "paid media experts" who looked great on paper but couldn't deliver in practice. They'd pitch marketing generalists as specialists, or people who'd never actually owned performance metrics.
The problem? Traditional recruiters don't understand what we actually do. They match keywords on resumes instead of understanding real experience. They can't distinguish between someone who's been in the room versus someone who's actually driven results.
So we built a different kind of recruitment firm. We run technical interviews that only practitioners could pass. We dig deep to find the top 10% - the ones who obsess over performance, who test everything, who actually move the needle. We know the difference between someone who's coasting and someone who's pushing boundaries.
We know what great looks like because we've been there.
