Specifically, he wanted an agency that provided his employees with a clear path for career growth in addition to the continued expansion in order to take on more clients. He was excited about the prospect of becoming part of a larger ecosystem that would allow Social Supply Co. to increase its service offering capabilities and work within a new client pool.
