The Role
You are creative-minded, naturally curious, resourceful and love problem-solving.
TopSpot Internet Marketing is a search engine marketing firm with a focus on accountability, transparency, collaboration, education, and delivering meaningful results for our clients. Our commitment to our customers starts with our team. We will always strive to hire extraordinary people who will bring the passion, confidence, eagerness to learn, and positive attitude that is necessary to set us apart from other companies. Customer & team loyalty is hard to find but it is crucial to the sustainable growth of our company, and we will never undervalue the opportunity to be better each day. We know the keys to our survival as a company are put people first, be better than yesterday, lead with passion, and always do the right thing.
We are 18-year digital marketing veterans continuing to bring passion and results to the industry. Bootstrapping the organization with no experience in business or digital with 5 people and growing to 130 was not luck. We truly are blessed as an organization and there have been many people that allowed this to happen – our team, our clients, our community. With the goal of being easy to work with, while also being a best place to work, investing in our innovation and growth is a no-brainer.
