Without Matchnode, I don’t even know if we would be doing paid ads...I’m excited to see what else we can do.

From our founding in 2013, we worked out of an office in Chicago’s Loop. Being agile and digital-first, we converted to a distributed, remote team during COVID in 2020.

We re-invest the money we used to spend on office space to travel to quarterly “get togethers.” Locations have included Austin, Lake Tahoe, Washington DC, Chicago, New Orleans, and Camp Wandawega in Wisconsin.
