Learn more about what makes Active Business Growth different.
A Quick Intro
Hi there! My name is Michal and I’m the head of Active Business Growth.
My vision for ABG is simple: To provide small & medium sized businesses with high quality digital advertising & marketing services that deliver real & meaningful results.
Having been in the ad industry for several years, I know what many small / medium businesses typically face when dealing with agencies. Overpromising, underdelivering, unknowledgeable reps, hidden fees – those are to name a few.
My goal is to do things differently, and provide small & medium sized businesses with the type of sophisticated, high quality, well thought out, meticulously executed, and results driven advertising & marketing services that typically only big global brands have access to.
A Little About Me
My journey in advertising & marketing started with a love and fascination for psychology. I enjoy getting to the core and understanding what motivates and influences people to act and make decisions. So, naturally, advertising & marketing was a perfect fit.
I began my career working for Mediacom, a leading global advertising agency, helping to develop and support advertising strategies for large brands. It was during this experience that I learned just how advanced, sophisticated, and thoughtful the strategic thinking was behind the advertising initiatives of the biggest global brands.
Along the way, I’ve immersed myself to gain expertise in the areas that are the most essential and effective for growing a business, including web development (HTML, CSS, PHP), UX design, paid search, SEO, and more. Over time, I have successfully executed dozens of projects and campaigns across each of these areas, through work & freelance roles and for ABG clients.
Active Business Growth reflects the culmination of all of my experiences. My mission is to apply all my knowledge, skills, and experience to help small & medium sized businesses grow and thrive, by providing results driven advertising & marketing that is well thought out and thoroughly executed.
