Background
Dallas McLaughlin Digital Marketing was founded in March 2021 by Dallas McLaughlin, a paid media strategist with 12+ years of experience inside full-service advertising agencies. The firm was built specifically to remove the friction of the traditional agency model — layers of account management, junior talent handling senior work, and opaque billing — and replace it with direct access to a single senior operator.

Across the firm and prior agency work, the founder has managed multi-million-dollar media budgets across Paid Search, Paid Social, Streaming TV / CTV, and Programmatic Display for eCommerce and B2B brands.
