Our Founder -Dave Pektas

Dave has focused exclusively on search marketing since 2006, learning the ropes from a respected search marketing agency in Seattle, WA. He has worked at major ad agencies since 1994 in New York, San Francisco and Orange County. You can see all of his experience and testimonials in detail at his linkedin profile. Here's a sample of what people have said:

“Dave is one of the most efficient and knowledgeable SEM's I've ever worked with. His deep understanding of Search strategy and tactics are second to none. His unique and proven approach would be an asset to any company with a desire to harness the power of the online channel.” March 8, 2009

“When I first interviewed Dave I realized "this guy is sharp!" Little did I know how quick Dave would become a master of search engine marketing. His tactical expertise and knowledge of Google/Yahoo/MSN functionality is uncanny. More important is that Dave can translate the minutiae that can be search marketing into a story that connects with clients. It's rare that someone can "talk tech" then succinctly communicate the strategic importance of a particular action as it relates to business objectives. Dave does that and does it while connecting with clients at a personal level.” September 22, 2008

“I think Dave is the best! Whatever he takes on he will do it to the very best of his ability (which is high). He is diligent and detail oriented. He gives about 150% to what he does. He has a strong a calming presence in the work environment. He is very respected by management and by his coworkers. I miss working with Dave and I hope to get to work with him again in the future.” March 17, 2008
