From college friends to contractor marketing.
D&J started with two friends who met freshman year at Providence College. We both ended up in jobs built around marketing, and by senior year we were meeting regularly to talk about how businesses were changing the way they market themselves.
By the end of 2023, D&J had become our only focus. We talked with contractors in all kinds of trades, from franchise owners to independent shops, and heard the same problems again and again: marketing that was hard to measure, always changing, expensive, and built from a template instead of around their business.
In 2024 we took on our first clients in Rhode Island and the surrounding states, and the results showed up fast: more leads, stronger reviews and a better first impression online. Today we work with contractors and home service companies across the country, from single-truck shops to multi-location franchise groups, from our office in Stamford, Connecticut.
