What We Do

Content Syndication

As a B2B performance marketing company, we specialize in increasing our client’s revenue by driving more sales. We take campaigns from strategy to sales. Our highly responsive database of 40 million B2B contacts allows us to make campaigns successful while meeting requirements such as job title, industry, and company size.

Sales Ready Leads

Taking your requirements such as budget and purchase timeframe into account, Thrive nurtures leads as they move down the sales funnel to provide you “hot” leads. We take out all the work of qualifying your leads, and only supply you with what you want− leads ready to buy.

Inbound Leads

Looking for organic leads? Through various platforms, Thrive generates organic leads that are actively looking and evaluating products for purchase. A combination of our inbound leads with our other programs provides a balance of quality and quantity.

International Leads

If you’re looking to expand your business internationally, Thrive can help you develop a campaign to generate leads and expand your presence globally. Our international campaigns are scalable and guarantee the same high results of our US campaigns.

    Rob Bellenfant

    CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
    close
    info:
    Rob is a serial entrepreneur and investor. In fact, there is an unreasonably good chance that Rob is either inventing, developing or pulling the trigger on a new business venture while you are reading this very sentence. He has started 6 successful businesses (and even more unsuccessful ones) in the past 14 years. He knows that the heart of a successful business is its marketing which, along with IT and finance, he considers to be his specialties. In addition to his role as Head Hancho/Team-Motivator/The-Glue-that-Holds-it-All-Together, Rob still (somehow) makes time everyday to challenge the team to expand our thinking and be open to change. Despite the hair-brained ideas that some of us have dreamed up on occasion (not naming any names here), he patiently allows us to explore our ideas and refrains from giving us dirty looks if they go horribly awry. We really like that about him. Outside of the office Rob spends his time with his beautiful wife, Jackie, their darling son and daughter and a household filled with too many pets to try to list here.

    Chief Information Officer
    close
    info:
    Evan is a legend here at Thrive as he was the first official team member that Rob hired back in the early days of what is now Thrive Marketing Group. Today, Evan manages our email marketing division and develops our strategic technology vision, including all technology functions and leads process innovation. He designs systems for managing Thrive’s ever growing datasets of contact information and is an integral part of keeping Thrive ahead of the curve in more ways than one. Evan has over 12 years of experience in the IT industry, initially honing his skills as a consultant in the healthcare industry and an Engineer for a Top-Ten (worldwide, by node!) M-Grade network. He occasionally steps out of his office and either takes to the air (while pursuing his private pilots license) or hits the books (while pursuing his Masters degree in information systems). Evan fuels his drive for all things IT with coffee - lots and lots of coffee. He plans to someday own his own coffee plantation in Hawaii, so he can vacation in paradise while simultaneously caffeinating himself into maximum productivity mode. Surely we are all invited to visit.
