About Our Broadband Marketing Team

Broadband MARKETING SPECIALISTS

Our team specializes in broadband marketing and has been working with municipalities across the United States since 2010. Clients within the broadband vertical include FISPA, Mountain Connect, Rio Blanco County (CO), and Fort Collins (CO).

Most importantly, our team is the marketing team behind successful fiber-to-the-premises networks including FairlawnGig in Fairlawn, Ohio. Our team had a proven track record of marketing broadband and municipal fiber broadband success.
