Our Story
FounderTraction was born when our founders met at a local co-working space and collaborated on a project. That one project led to two, which then led to three, and so on. We’ve now helped many companies develop and implement digital and marketing strategies, define and launch their brand and products and measure their efforts and success.
Our Values & Principles
Our primary task is to listen. Doing so allows us to develop a thorough understanding of your needs and the needs of your customers.
Data should support your business decisions. Whether it’s your hypothesis, content, campaign or design, our objective is to help you test, learn and tune your approach for optimal results.
It’s not adequate for us to only make recommendations, we educate and inform so that you understand the reasoning behind them.
We’re not afraid of feedback and criticism; it is not only welcome, but it’s also essential to the success of your project.
We support our solutions with research and data, not personal preferences or opinions.
We’ve based our business on our personal beliefs; honesty, integrity and a desire to impact our client’s business.
One size does not fit all; every business or market requires a unique set of solutions and tools.
The best solution(s) are holistic and integrate strategy, design, content, and data.
Talk is cheap; results drive growth.
