Group Twenty Seven ad agency

The way people behave online has changed. 

The way people learn about, trust and engage with your brand has also changed.

As AI and search continue to merge, a lot of the old paid search ads and social ads strategies no longer work. That makes sense, right? But sometimes, it’s hard to make a change. Marketing and advertising online is not about providing you with shallow strategies like a list of keywords. That didn’t work a few years ago and it does not work today. 

My goal is to help you understand the power of a thoughtful approach when building your ad programs.

Group Twenty Seven’s strategies work today, and we will evolve for tomorrow. We’ve been successful for 16+ years because we love to improve, every single day. And because we deliver results.

At Group Twenty Seven, we love winning for our clients. 

Let’s explore our route to victory.

Founder & CEO

We don’t just manage your ads. We future-proof how your ad programs align and support your entire digital marketing plan. We combine strategy with relentless testing, short-term wins with long-term vision, and deep advertising expertise with daily innovation.

Why Us?

This is what true partnership looks like. 

At Group Twenty Seven, we are budget-optimizers, story-listeners, deep-lookers. We do things strategically, based on your business. We are provocative, curious, ever-learning. We bring not only professionalism and expertise in paid search and paid social — we bring edge, creativity, fresh insight, warmth, curiosity, and a willingness to constantly learn, grow, test, and evolve. Here’s why our approach is unique: 

We ask the right questions to understand your entire business, through a marketing lens. Most agencies focus on ads. We look at your whole business—your product, landing pages, sales process, customer journey—and make sure everything works together. When your ad campaign fits your complete business strategy, that’s when you see real results.

We understand how people actually behave online today. Yes, some people search, click, and engage immediately. But most need to become aware, learn, trust, and feel a need before they purchase. If your strategy isn’t building awareness, education, and connection alongside conversions, it won’t have staying power.

We’re always testing what’s next to give you a-ha moments. Our motto: If it has the opportunity to improve performance, we’re going to try it for you. Every client gets a monthly test-and-learn plan because there’s always something new to explore. We adopt new features and betas immediately, so you get both short-term wins and long-term competitive advantage. We want you to tell your boss: “Look what we’ve fixed—and look what’s possible moving forward!”

We create ad programs with creative wins, and long-term success. We don’t just care about leads now—we care about your leads in the future. Anyone can drive traffic to your site. We focus on qualified engagement that builds your business over time.

Our Leaders

Marketing managers, directors and C-suite executives just like you have been benefiting from our advertising expertise for over 16 years. We remain committed to providing our clients with the responsive service and excellent results on which we’ve built our reputation.
