Toronto, Canada (PRWEB) March 04, 2014 -- Powered by Search, a full-service digital marketing agency headquartered in Toronto, announced today its merger with the internet marketing agency Small Business Online Coach and the web design and development agency NetConneXion. Matthew Hunt, Founder and CEO of Small Business Online Coach, has joined Powered by Search’s leadership team as Chief Operating Officer. Warren Houston, Founder and CEO of NetConneXion, has become Powered by Search’s Chief Financial Officer and Chief Client Officer.

“This is an important step in our aggressive growth strategy and moves us closer to becoming the leading digital marketing agency in North America,” said Dev Basu, Powered by Search founder and CEO. “The merger with Small Business Online Coach and NetConneXion doubles the size of our team and more than doubles our client base. It also adds greater depth to the services we offer North American businesses with aggressive digital marketing revenue goals. Our services now include digital strategy, search engine optimization, paid search marketing, conversion rate optimization, social media marketing and content marketing, and web design and development. Matthew Hunt and Warren Houston are terrific digital marketers, and we’re excited to have them and their teams on board.”

Powered by Search will remain headquartered in Toronto, with additional offices in Barrie, Kelowna, Calgary and Vancouver, and clients will benefit in a variety of ways. “Powered by Search is now in a better position to deliver large-scale web development and design projects, given NetConneXion’s extensive capabilities in this area from working with clients such as TJX, owners of Winners, HomeSense and Marshalls,” said Warren Houston, CFO and CCO, who landed his former web design and development agency on the Profit Hot 50 list in 2012. “In addition, we are excited to integrate Small Business Online Coach’s sophisticated search engine marketing and social media marketing internal processes that bring even more value to our clients,” added Matthew Hunt, COO, who founded his previous internet marketing agency in 2010 and grew it to 100 clients in just one year.

The digital marketing space has become very fragmented and North America’s top brands are demanding accountability from their agencies. “They don’t want just another agency, they have to be serviced by true business leaders who can become their go-to digital marketing partners,” said Alex Rascanu, Marketing Manager. Powered by Search develops and executes customized, high ROI-focused strategies that drive customer acquisition for North American and Western European clients such as RE/MAX, Rogers, BMO, Allstate USA, FedEx USA, Whirlpool, Intact Insurance, TJX, and InterContinental Hotels Group. Powered by Search is a Google Partner and was recognized in the Profit Hot 50, Branham 300, and Deloitte’s Impact Infused awards.

“With a core expertise in digital search, social and content, our mission is to connect consumers with deserving brands who are industry leaders in their own right, and we’re looking forward to continuing to do that as an even stronger Powered by Search team,” said Dev Basu, CEO of Powered by Search.
