Brkthru team members celebrated the holidays season with colleagues at Hub Hangouts across the country.

Our Hub Hangouts are an opportunity for the nearly 200 Brkthru employees in 19 hubs across the country to get together at a location of their choosing to socialize and spend quality time together.

The Brkthru Orlando Hub made candles.

Our Tampa hub closed out the year with a holiday lunch and white elephant gift exchange at The Columbia Restaurant on Tampa Bay! It’s the oldest operated restaurant in Florida, as well as the oldest Spanish restaurant in the United States. Delicious food and even better company!

Our Cincinnati Hub was feeling lucky on Friday the 13th and enjoyed a holiday brunch at First Watch.

The 757 Hub (Hampton Roads, VA) had a twinkly evening full of holiday spirit at the Norfolk Botanical Gardens. They strolled through the mile long trail of lights with gourmet hot chocolate & churros and had such a fun & festive time together.

The Detroit Hub gathered for a Happy Hour at Craft Breww City and held a holidays white elephant gift exchange.

The Brkthru team of professionals come to work every day to manage successful digital media campaigns for their clients and with our Hub Hangouts, take time to socialize and spend time together.

How is your cannabis business promoting and Black Friday? The holiday weekend is approaching quickly, but there’s still time to get your brand out there.

Our President Jonathan Mellinger talks advertising for the holiday rush with Green Market Report. Read the story here: https://bit.ly/491Ydm8

Cannabis retailers are ratcheting up discounts this year, but the more aggressive promotions may be cutting into the holiday's actual value.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐚 𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞? As the Client Services Development Specialist, I work closely with the client services team and across other departments in developing new hire and ongoing department training initiatives, delivering and facilitating materials that promote engagement and recall, while also measuring and working to continue to improve training programs.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐣𝐨𝐛? I enjoy working alongside other Account Directors and team members to identify where we can provide more training and resources to our client service team, helping them grow!

𝐀𝐬 𝐚 𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝, 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐰 𝐮𝐩? I always had an interest in marketing and advertising. My aunt worked for a newspaper, and it intrigued me! Fast forward 20+ years to working in advertising agencies with all types of media from newspaper, to outdoor, to TV/Radio, and digital, finding my way over to the vendor partner side has been a great experience!

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐝𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠? Spending time with my family and seeing them enjoy something. We go to a lot of concerts together. We’ve been to shows from 80’s and 90’s cover bands to One Direction, Taylor Swift, Zach Bryan, Morgan Wallen, and more together.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞? I was an Account Director. While it was hard to shift away from direct, daily communication with those team members, my new role gives me the opportunity to connect with them and others across the departments! Utilizing experiences from my previous role helps with many of the resources we are continuing to build for Client Services.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤? Willing to learn! Digital advertising is changing every day. I want to always keep an open mind and be willing to learn more, so it can be shared across the team.

More than 50 members of the Brkthru team participated this week in our Fall 2024 Client Success offsite.

Topics covered were the latest updates in digital media tactics, campaign attribution and management, and of course, Brkthru’s competitive advantage of service (we consistently receive an overall client satisfaction score of greater than 90%).

Brkthru executive leadership team, and leaders from media and performance and measurement, worked with our client success, sales development and business development on what’s on the horizon in 2025.

The three-day sales meeting was held in our very own 7,000-square foot Detroit Training Center in Southfield, MI.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐁𝐫𝐤𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐮? The people. Brkthru only brings on the best people. We’re all good humans, so it’s easy to work here when everyone just wants to do the right thing. The ability to travel for work. I will happily hop in my car or plane and go to any town to work. For me, it’s a huge perk.

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨? I’m at the front-end of our client relationships. I spend my work time maintaining current relationships and looking for new partners that need help with digital media.

𝐃𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐡𝐨𝐛𝐛𝐢𝐞𝐬? In the winter I’m involved with Hockey. I play and ref, so on the weekends, I’m always at the rink. In the summer, you can find me on the golf course or on the water. This year I got to play in a game while my brother refed me.

𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐠𝐨 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐯𝐚𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧? Italy and an Alaskan Cruise!

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐣𝐨𝐛𝐬 𝐝𝐢𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐁𝐫𝐤𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐮? I was in radio, on-air and programming, before I came to Brkthru.

𝐖𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐤 𝐢𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞? Besides the ability to travel for work, I greatly appreciate having your home office be your home base. In today’s world, the lines between work time and personal time can mix or be blurred, so working from your home office is great. Also, I never miss a Pizza Friday!

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮? Helping people grow or get the job done. Internally, we’re a very supportive group, both in department and company wide. When it comes to helping clients, there’s always that great feeling for everyone when you can check the box for a job well done!

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨?
I help advertisers get the most out of their advertising budgets by aligning campaigns to advertiser campaign goals (KPIs) in programmatic and (or) social buying media at efficient pricing.

𝐅𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦?
NY Yankees, NY Rangers, and NY Giants. You can take the girl out of NY, but you cannot take the NY out of the girl.

𝐃𝐢𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐬𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐬?
I was a competitive swimmer from ages 7 through 13.

𝐃𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐡𝐨𝐛𝐛𝐢𝐞𝐬?
I read A LOT. This year I had a goal of reading 125 books but will probably end up reading 146 based on the pace I am currently at. (P.S. Add me as a friend on Goodreads: Laura Schratzmeier)

𝐓𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐮𝐬 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐮𝐬.

Going to the park with my dad or my cousins and swinging on the swings. To this day, there is nothing a little swing can't help.

All the core values. I have never worked at a company that lives and breathes said core values. Culture isn’t something that is just spoken about here; it just is.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐝 𝐨𝐟?
I’ve been lucky to win multiple awards at my previous company, but in May I was awarded Platinum Performer, and it was an honor to be recognized for working hard for our clients.

The Brkthru team of nearly 200 employees gathered recently at the Borgata in Atlantic City for our Fall 2024 All-Company Meeting with the theme of Brkthru Empire!

In addition to our typical semi-annual, all-company get togethers of business updates, key initiatives and department breakouts, this time we included an in-person signing day for our yearly One Day Sale.

Members of the Brkthru Client Success, Sales Development, Business Development, Client Services, Media, Strategy and Analytics departments worked side-by-side reaching out to clients to finalize orders, and those from Operations, Finance, HR and Organizational Management worked to process orders, provide updates and keep everyone energized.

It was our most-successful One Day Sale ever – we booked an impressive number of campaigns for current and new clients, locking in plans for Q4 2024 and to help clients get a jump on 2025 with upfront specials on paid digital media campaigns.

The Brkthru Empire theme continued in the evening with a celebratory dinner where employees came dressed in 1920s Speakeasy attire (congratulations again Karen Cuce and Andy Ernst for winning the contest).

We also welcomed new employees, celebrated anniversaries, and recognized the contributions of a special group of employees with Founders Cup, Platinum Performers and new Core Value awards.

This was an action-packed offsite, demonstrating again that a company founded on service to its clients and saying YES! accomplishes great things when we work together.

Congratulations Authenticators – You're Our 10th Brkthru U Graduating Class!

14 recent additions to the Brkthru team just completed their week-long onboarding and training during Brkthru U, becoming our 10th class since launching the program in December 2022. They named themselves Authenticators, and their energy, enthusiasm and passion was on full display.

The August 2024 class brings the total number of Brkthru U graduates close to 200 – new hires and veteran employees – who have graduated from this hands-on, interactive training that covers our commitment to service, Core Values and brand pillars, how we work and processes, department overviews, our clients and key verticals, and The Brkthru Way.

This week, our Detroit Hub (one of 19 regional employee hubs across the country) hosted the Authenticators for a dinner of famous Detroit pizza.

Brkthru U classes are held at the Detroit Training Center in Southfield, MI, our 7,000 square-foot facility that includes two training rooms, modular open space and offices, and state-of-the art audio-visual technology.

With a business model based on service, aligning all employees to the Ethos of Yes ensures Brkthru continues to receive a greater-than-90% overall satisfaction score from our clients. Brkthru was also just named for the third year-in-a-row to the Inc. 5000 of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies.

At #2001, Brkthru’s on the Inc. 5000 for Third Year in-a-Row!

It’s not our first time - we also made the list of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies in 2022 and 2023. This year Brkthru is #2001, joining an exclusive group of fewer than 10 percent of Inc. 5000 honorees that have made it for three consecutive years.

“Making the Inc. 5000 was never a goal,” said Co-Founder & Managing Director Andrew Sklerov, “But it sure feels great to join this exclusive club year after year.”

Companies on the Inc. 5000 are categorized into 33 industries, with the second-largest category being Advertising and Marketing (Digital is the largest).

Brkthru is an impressive #196 out of 500 in the Advertising & Marketing category in 2024.

Here’s why it matters: according to Inc., “As most entrepreneurs know, revenue growth requires more than a great idea. It takes skilled team members, customer relationships, operational excellence, and cash flow.” We couldn’t have said it better.

“I couldn’t be prouder of our team of nearly 200 digital media professionals for their daily commitment to serving our clients and the work they do every day on behalf of their campaigns,” said Jeff Hastedt Co-Founder & Managing Director. “We founded Brkthru on service, and our sustained growth proves that’s a successful business model.”

What is the Inc. 5000? The Inc. 5000 list is an annual ranking of the fastest-growing privately owned companies in the United States. Ranks are determined based on revenue over a three-year period.

Companies that make Inc. 5000’s Fastest Growing Private Companies list have proven to be serious players in their industries. They’ve shown they can run consistently successful businesses that are poised for future growth.

All 5000 companies named to the list are featured on Inc.com and the September issue of Inc. magazine, a distinguished honor. In addition to the overall rankings, companies are ranked by industry, metro area, revenue, and number of employees.

But let’s be honest — companies are only as successful as their teams. The Inc. 5000 list is a powerful way for outstanding teams to receive the recognition they deserve.

Partner with Brkthru: an Inc. 5000 Honoree. Our team is pretty great, and we’re thrilled that Inc. 5000 noticed — three years in a row.

“We’ve continued to prove ourselves by managing successful digital advertising campaigns for advertising agencies and advertisers in just about every industry across the United States,” said Jonathan Mellinger, Brkthru President. “But we wouldn’t have been listed among the Inc. 5000 Fastest-Growing Companies without our amazing team, customers, and partners.”

At Brkthru, our goal is to serve as the digital media team managing successful turnkey advertising campaigns delivered on any digital device. To learn more about who we are and what we do, check out brkthru.com and reach out today!

𝐁𝐫𝐤_𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐮 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝑪𝒐𝒖𝒓𝒕𝒏𝒆𝒚 𝑱𝒐𝒏𝒆𝒔

𝐓𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐮𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐣𝐨𝐛𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐝 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐁𝐫𝐤𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐮.
I’ve had previous roles as a Media Buyer, Search Engine Marketing Manager, a Sales Associate, and as a Barista. I believe my role as a Barista prepared me the most for my career - I learned to communicate & connect with the variety of customers I served, doing my part to create a memorable & inclusive experience. Managing for a family-owned business demonstrated to me the grit, passion, and energy required for building a successful team & business - a mindset I carry with me.

𝐅𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐨?
For professional growth, I enjoy listening to “Talent Development Hot Seat” and “HR Superstars”. I also love “Ologies” for deep learning dives into a variety of topics, and “And That’s Why We Drink” for a perfect blend of true crime & paranormal.

𝐈𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐟𝐚𝐦𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐞𝐞𝐭?
I would love to meet Patti Smith. She’s a true female punk-rock pioneer, singer-songwriter, author, and poet. I haven’t met her (yet), but I did share an airplane with her son on the way to host our Brkthru U February Class.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐧?
The ability to practice a growth-mindset. A growth-mindset spurs curiosity, novelty, and expands our thinking, creating brain space for simple yet innovative solutions.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭'𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐣𝐨𝐛?
Witnessing the comradery & sense of belonging that forms during our collaborative learning experiences is rewarding & inspiring to me, because I believe building genuine human relationships is a big part of what makes us feel fulfilled in the work we do, and unleashes our potential to do our best work. The caliber & expertise of our talent also inspires me and gives me confidence in the experience we provide for our clients.

Brkthru Mid-Summer Hub Hangouts!

Brkthru employees beat the summer heat by gathering recently in their respective cities for our Hub Hangouts.

The Charlotte hub had a great time enjoying St. Louis style pizza. It was this North Carolina hub’s biggest turn out yet.

For its July hangout, our Cincinnati hub enjoyed relaxing pedicures and conversation, and after headed out to indulge in Brkthru employees' favorite day of the month - Pizza Friday!

Our Tampa hub had a great time bowling, having appetizers and endless conversation that made for a fun few hours. This hub welcomed its newest hub member, and two hub members realized they graduated from the same high school (one year apart). Rumor has it, the conversation was so great the bowling alley told this hub they were bowling too slow.

Our Hub Hangouts are an opportunity for groups of Brkthru employees in 19 hubs across the country to get together once a month at a location of their choosing to socialize and spend quality time together.

If joining a team of professionals who come to work every day to manage successful digital media campaigns for their clients and still take time to socialize and spend time together sounds interesting, it is. Check out our open positions at https://brkthru.com/careers/
