"Lars and I are both passionate about helping companies to better tell their stories online," stated Evolver Co-Founder Craig Fisher. "We love helping them find and project their authentic voice while sharing their unique culture with the world. And we love exploring the technology that allows us to help them find and master the right online channels to do that. Evolver brings this all together and is powered by the knowledge we've built from working with some really great organizations."
Evolver will also be the primary sponsor of the "Cool Tools Show" podcast co-hosted by Craig and Lars. You can find the Cool Tools Show podcast on iTunes and SoundCloud.
