SmartAcre Celebrates 15 Years in Business
The ability to adapt, innovate, and remain hungry is what keeps SmartAcre moving forward. As SmartAcre® marks our 15th year in business in 2023, we’ve experienced plenty of change since our start in 2008. Being able to evolve in the marketing and technology space has allowed us to grow and propel our team and clients forward.
SmartAcre’s History
In 2008, what is now SmartAcre began as metter/advertising. Started by Chuck Metter, the agency focused on digital advertising and marketing.
“Metter Advertising was born out of a need to provide small to medium manufacturers with high-quality web properties and full digital marketing support. Our initial success allowed us to quickly expand into many other industries including education, financial, healthcare, logistics, and many more,” said Chuck Metter, founder of metter/advertising. “I am extremely proud of how far the company has come over these past 15 years. It is a testament to the firm’s attention to detail and level of customer service that many of the original clients are still with SmartAcre today.”
Four years in, we expanded our services to include Marketing Automation, paving the way to becoming the MarTech agency we are today. We’ve continued to grow our team and our services as the landscape and technology have changed. That growth is just one of the ways we practice our core value of “Always be Learning.”
By 2014, we were so much more than a digital agency. We rebranded as SmartAcre to showcase our tech-forward focus and collection of smart, passionate marketers. We established key partnerships with platforms like Salesforce, Pardot, HubSpot, Marketo, Salesloft, Vidyard, and WP Engine, allowing us to build our expertise in industry-leading technologies.
Today we are a team that puts each other first, cares deeply about what we do, and strives to always carve out time to learn, grow, and prioritize. Explore more about SmartAcre and our agency timeline here.
