BombBomb was founded in 2006 by Darin Dawson and Conor McCluskey. The idea came from two salesmen that knew their best client interactions came from face to face meetings, but during this time, communication had started to become faceless. Connor wanted to test the waters and sent out a video email to test out this form of communication and the results were overwhelming-essentially leading to the birth of BombBomb!
Ethan Beute came onto BombBomb in 2011 as their VP of Marketing. At this point in time, Ethan had already carved a niche for himself in the B2B marketing world. Having written books such as “Rehumanize Your Business” and “Human-Centered Communication”, Ethan eventually blossomed into his current role as Chief Evangelist, to spread the good word of Bomb Bomb’s mission in changing the ways in which organizations communicate with their consumers.

Jay details his journey from early childhood to his current position as founder of Vyyer.
Growing up in a Lebanese family, the entrepreneurial spirit is something that is heavily embedded within their culture.
Jay’s father was also an entrepreneur, so the influences and foundation to be successful were always there.
Jay was technology oriented his entire life. Being a driving force for inciting the desire to make a difference in the B2B technology sector.
While he demonstrated these passions early on, it didn’t stop there. As he puts it: “I knew nothing, and wanted to learn everything.
He attended the NYU Stern School Of Business, receiving his BS in Finance in 2012. Shortly after achieving this milestone, he realized that this wasn’t the career path he envisioned for himself.
In having this realization, he decided to pursue his passion in the technology sector as it relates to privacy and security, having been inspired from the events of identity theft happening with his sister.
Jay has been the CEO of Vyyer since Feb 2017, and the CTO for Bestow App which focuses on solutions for contactless payments, since March of this year.

Guillaume’s early journey was full of successes and failures, as he so vividly describes.
He and his parents grew up on a farm in Southern France. His unbridled ambition is the driving force for putting him in the position he’s lucky to be in, today.
Before his journey brought him into the world of digital marketing, G was a chemical engineer, having received his first degree from Chimie ParisTech-PSL.
Every journey starts with rock-bottom level experiences. G travelled for a year, using social networks to stay at people’s homes.
He would work in exchange for living accommodations, taking any job he could get his hands on to stay afloat. Once he uncovered his passion, he went back to school to study marketing at HEC Paris, launching his 1st business with his father.
Unfortunately the 1st business didn’t pan out in the ways he had hoped. As G states: ''When we launched our first website, we only got 6 orders.”
The relationship with his father suffered, due to the failures of the business.
Following this journey of trials and tribulations, he went into an agency job with his friend, starting with outbound prospecting. He was the Co-Founder of LeadGuru.io
After a few months, they generated thousands and thousands in revenue.
This, in turn, fostered the love for the industry. Which prompted G to start Lemlist in 2018.
If you’re interested in keeping up with G’s journey, see below for a list of the channels you can find him on:

He went to business school at Indiana University,receiving his BA in English and Psychology, then proceeded to work in San Francisco for Visage, Jazz, and Whil Concepts. Inc, respectively.
During this time, he also went on to receive his MBA from Purdue University in General Management.During his time in San Francisco, his area of focus was primarily performance marketing.
After his time in San Francisco came to an end, Justin transitioned into VP of Marketing at Sigstr, spending 3 years with them until Terminus acquired Sigstr in 2019.
During his tenure at Sigstr, he had an epiphany that marketing is so much more than just performance-based operations.
If you’ve had the immense pleasure to be a part of Justin’s journey in the world of B2B/Saas marketing, then you too recognize the willingness and capabilities to leverage B2B marketing for consumers and clients.
It’s very easy to utilize a run-of-the-mill sales funnel or buyer persona guide to entice customers to consume your products or services.
However, the ways in which we buy into these services are always changing, and Justin makes it abundantly clear that this “one size fits all” method do not work.
Justin describes the B2B sector as a “noisy marketplace” and is dedicated to revamping the approach of B2B/Saas marketing, for the betterment of the digital marketing world.
We are certain you will get the fundamental education on B2B Marketing with the intent of being more B2C if you follow Justin and his team at Terminus on their socials.

Three key learnings you'll get are the following:

Harmonizing machine learning with human intelligence and a non-linear way of thinking is what Scott has dubbed the "augmented marketer", and as big ops move towards big ops, AI will facilitate the heavy-lifting of data points to uncovers and synthesize martech in a scalable way.

We discuss an incredible collaboration with WPP (world-renown advertising agency) which led to a whitepaper and study on the 5 trends shaping the future decade of MarTech.
