While we find meaning in our mission to provide SMBs with tools that help them understand and improve marketing results, our name also serves to remind us why we are really doing this: our children.

We each have one child: Jackson and Tess. Jess is more than the mash-up of their names. Who they are, and what they mean to us, is the inspiration behind everything we do. With that said, would like to introduce you to them, and how they influence us to make Jess better every day.

Tess is caring and fun loving and a best friend to many people. She is a recent graduate of Franklin and Marshall College and former athlete. She currently lives and works in Vail, Colorado, as a producer of a live morning show, “Good Morning Vail.” An avid skier, she has recently also found a love of everything outdoors, including hiking and camping.

Tess loves to travel, and has always had wanderlust, which fuels her creativity. Tess has written and produced many short films and other creative works to bring her experiences to life. Much like Tess, Jess is great at bring your data to life in unique and beneficial ways.
