MGMTOUR STORY

2017: the beginning

MGMT Digital was created in 2017 by founders Zach Gross and Danny Leary. They were first connected through the recovery community in Los Angeles and quickly became close friends. Both having worked in the industry, it was important to Danny and Zach to bridge the gap between communication and results, as digital marketing agencies are often notoriously lacking in this area. Along the way, Danny introduced Zach to Stephanie Maitner, a former co-worker of his. Stephanie is now the Chief Marketing Officer and incorporates the MGMT mission statement into their daily work: to be an ethical solution for behavioral healthcare treatment centers we believe in.

During the summer of 2017, Danny sadly lost his life to the disease of addiction. Through that pain grew the motivation to continue to build the company the three of them worked so hard to create. MGMT Digital began to take on a different meaning.

2018 - 2020: Growing in the Industry

What started as an idea to bring ethical marketing practices to an industry that, at the time, was ripe with bad-faith business, MGMT Digital began to grow around the concept of ethical marketing. It was not just enough to avoid working with clients using unethical practices in the industry; the idea of ethical marketing had to be implemented and incorporated at every level of our business as well.

As we continued to work with clients within the behavioral healthcare industry, we saw how many marketing agencies were failing to live up to the ethical standards needed in this space. Rather than try to manipulate the system and work around the rules, we make sure we constantly stay up-to-date with Google’s latest algorithm changes and keep our clients informed about these changes as well. This way, we know our work will result in positive changes that our clients can see.

In 2020, Nicole Burson was brought on as our Digital Marketing Manager, which had an immediate positive impact on our SEO practices and data tracking. While we worked to grow our business during this time, we stayed true to ourselves in the process, remaining a boutique agency and focusing on client retention above all else.

2021 & Beyond: Not the End…

While MGMT Digital’s ethical marketing mission has remained, our team has continued to grow over the years. In late 2021, Nick Sparrow was brought on to oversee the development and implementation of our client’s content, spanning both blogs and core pages.

In January of 2022, Anna Hernandez was brought on as MGMT Digital’s Social Media Manager. These hirings have allowed us to expand and improve, while keeping the team small enough to ensure every one of our clients receives the professional, quality, and personal work they deserve.

Today, MGMT Digital continues to grow and expand from the addiction treatment community, into mental health treatment and beyond. As we grow, we maintain the same levels of personal care and ethical treatment we believe are needed within this industry.
