In 2010 we set out to change the eCommerce marketing space because we saw the obvious flaws in online advertising: Channel confusion, a reactionary system to consumer trends, blind trust in black box algorithms, over-spending, waiting forever on creative and even longer to go live. And, of course, deciphering attribution for performance. Comprised of veteran direct marketers and engineers from eHarmony, E*TRADE, Oracle and the Rubicon Project, we focus intensely on one simple objective: To create a performance marketing that actually performs. As a result, we pioneered a cloud-based marketing platform that gives our customers complete control, access to marketing channels, and delivers audience, creative, and performance – all from one beautiful user interface. We call it CANVAS.
VSA`s purpose is to design for a better human experience. As a strategy and design agency, we blend consumer insights and data with human-centered design to activate meaningful, motivating and measurable experiences in an increasingly noisy world. With offices in Chicago, New York and San Francisco, VSA offers a full range of fully integrated capabilities—branding, advertising, data science and technology—all under one roof. VSA is also a proud member of Meet The People, an international family of unified but independent agencies. For more than 40 years, we have delivered solutions for business and creative leaders at some of the world`s most respected brands and forward-thinking organizations, including Google, Nike and IBM. For VSA employees as well as those we recruit, we`ve adopted a long-term hybrid model that allows people to define their way of working in the way they want. This means that VSAers can work from anywhere in the United States—home, office or any place in between. Working from anywhere gives VSAers the option to find time to work alone, join others for office-based collaboration, or meet up as needed for small-group moments and client meetings. We`re also hiring with geographic “neutrality”—pursuing the best talent wherever it may live. We think having a workplace option matters most these days: Employees benefit from human interaction and the need for a change in scenery from time to time. And also, VSA benefits from a diversity of experiences and perspectives that come from seeing and participating in the larger world. All of which is why we see our offices in Chicago, New York and San Francisco as a flexible, accessible network of workspace hubs for employees to use as needed for work and interaction with colleagues.
