About Kevin Szypula
With a mission to bring enterprise quality digital marketing advice, tools and quality to small and medium sized businesses, in 2006 Kevin founded Driven Local as an early independent pure-digital agency to focus on this goal.
Besides focusing in on results and customer success, Driven Local’s work culture always made sure employees were respected, well treated and the office had a fun, yet professional, atmosphere. This balance of focusing in on employee happiness and work life balance resulted in a Glassdoor 100% CEO approval rating for Kevin during his tenure as CEO of Driven Local.
Under Kevin’s leadership and vision, Driven Local thrived for over a decade of continued growth and achieved many milestones including:
- Listed on Inc 500 list of fastest growing companies multiple times.
