People are pushed by drives but pulled by values.

The Will To Meaning

Our Values

Truth
Everything we do requires a commitment to truth. We are data-driven marketers and data is truth. If something isn’t working, we tell the client. If we make a mistake, we own it. If we disagree, we say so. If we don’t know the answer, we admit it readily...and then figure it out! Truth is the first and most important step to solving any problem. Truth is the foundational value of our company.
Responsibility
By being proactive we influence the world in a way that only responsible people can. Responsibility requires us to constantly look for opportunities to go further. We don’t try to get out of work, we lean into it. We are constantly asking ourselves: How do we help each other? How do we give more? How do we do more?
Heart
We care. We care about our clients. We care about our teammates. We care about the world around us. People rely on us to do what’s best for them. Helping people grow their business is a sacred trust. The only way to honor that trust is to treat their businesses as our own.

The team behind the scenes 

We are a group of hard-core problem solving, custom code hacking, status-quo bucking, out-of the-box thinking, genius digital gangsters breaking out the creative solutions with a vengeance and the passion of a thousand suns (covered in Tabasco sauce)…

Free Action Plan
We get it—there are countless digital marketing firms out there vying for your attention. And we understand that you have plenty of options when it comes to choosing the right partner to make your paid ad campaigns shine. 

I mean, sure. We happen to be the #1 Ranked Google Ads Agency in the US… 

But at Solutions 8, we don't make extravagant promises. We don't proclaim to have some top-secret knowledge other agencies don't. And we certainly don't have any magical, otherworldly powers (even though we love a good superhero movie).

We're just really good at what we do, because we work hard at it. 

Everyone on our team is fully invested in helping our clients grow and thrive. If we make promises, it's because we know we can fulfill them. And yes, we make really incredible things happen with Google Ads, but that's just the result of experience, continuing education, and nonstop hard work.

In fact, when DigitalMarketer (the premier online community for digital marketing professionals) needed a Google Ads expert, they asked us. 

In the 15+ years we've been in business, Solutions 8 has worked with thousands of companies in a broad range of industries.

And unlike a lot of other agencies out there, we love and encourage client input.

Our clients are directly involved with every aspect of their digital marketing campaigns, from goal-setting to strategy to reporting. (Of course, if you'd rather watch from the sidelines while we take care of the day-to-day task list, that's okay too.)

Need a few more reasons to work with us? 
Let's start with our partnerships.

Solutions 8 is a Certified Google Partner, meaning we've completed and passed Google Ads Certification as well as demonstrated performance by delivering strong client and company growth. Our Google Ads team is ranked in the top 3% of all partners in performance and customer care.

In fact, Solutions 8 had one of the very first Certified Digital Marketing Professionals (CDMPs).
