#44 – Insivia
A strategic marketing and sales agency, Insivia excels in driving prospects (through social media, paid advertising, and search optimization), converting leads (where great Web design and A/B testing comes in), and closing sales (ecommerce tools). The agency strives to be passionate, and the staff is fueled by the open, collaborative workspace, green patio space, and, naturally, the occasional air hockey diversion.
Location: Cleveland, Ohio
Number of Employees: 15
Company Culture: Insivia‘s dog-friendly offices, set in the historic Cleveland Agora Theatre Complex where bands like Bruce Springsteen, U2, and ZZ Top made early appearances, are framed with a glass garage door and extend to an outdoor patio. The beer-stocked fridge, air hockey table, skee-ball table, and cornhole boards keep everyone relaxed during breaks. Fruit and veggies are always on hand, and employees hold monthly lunch parties or take lunchtime walks through Cleveland’s Midtown district. The weekly Thursday happy hour keeps the week flowing and team members gelling.
Sweet Perks: Insivia’s time-off policies are almost too good to be true. Full-time staffers get unlimited paid time off and the option to work home from home all summer. At the end of each quarter, employees also earn bonuses as long as the company hits its revenue targets.
Giving Back: The agency regularly donates money and services to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Plus, employees train together for races like the annual MidTown Cleveland Healthline Classic 10K.
In Their Own Words: “Whether it’s getting involved with graphic design, strategic planning, or learning to code features of a website, Insivia encourages individual growth and aligns everything with my personal goals, and that to me is what makes this place so great.”

For 22+ years, I’ve driven a single truth into every founder and team I work with: no company grows without an intimate, almost obsessive understanding of its buyer.
My work centers on the psychology behind decisions—what buyers trust, fear, believe, and ignore. I teach organizations to abandon internal bias, step into the buyer’s world, and build everything from that perspective outward.
I write, speak, and build tools like BuyerTwin to help companies hardwire buyer understanding into their daily operations—because the greatest competitive advantage isn’t product, brand, or funding. It’s how deeply you understand the humans you serve.
