Leadership
Skip Carney
Founder/CEO
Skip Carney, our founder, CEO, and Chief Sunshine Officer, started the agency as a recording studio which quickly evolved into a full-service agency by asking clients "how might we help?" He has always believed in diving headfirst into a client’s business to look at it from all angles, not just marketing, to ensure the best outcome. Over the years, we have partnered with B2B and B2C companies across a variety of industries: financial, manufacturing, education, hospitality, nonprofit, healthcare, automotive, retail, CPG, and more. He built the agency by thinking BIG, rooted in the belief that "we live to serve." This is how we continue to approach all relationships.
