Merged Firm Offers Research and Marketing for Causes

In Florida, USA, Forte Interactive and Big Couch Media Group have merged to create a new research and marketing agency, to be known as Achieve.

Achieve was previously the name of one of Forte Interactive's subsidiaries, with a focus on work for two causes, The Millennial Impact Project and MCON. The merger combines Forte Interactive's technology solutions with Big Couch Media Group's consulting and marketing expertise, and creates a company providing a range of client driven solutions from research and campaign design through full technology and marketing plan execution. Big Couch's principals, John Studdard and Georgianne Brown, will join Achieve's senior management team.

Forte Interactive was established in 1999 and provides the cloud-based technology solutions TrustedPartner and RacePartner, which offer content management, fundraising and registration tools for nonprofits and endurance events. Big Couch is half as old and is a full service strategic consulting and digital agency.

John Studdard, co-founder and Manager Partner at Big Couch Media Group, says 'We have collaborated many times with [Forte's] team over the past several years on a number of projects and are excited to be part of the new Achieve'.

Forte Interactive CEO Clay Williams comments: 'Achieve has been a division of Forte Interactive since 2014, and in that time their research has driven our technology, creative and strategy solutions. As our services continue to expand we're excited to be able to offer our clients more ways to build their digital presence and cultivate support for their cause'.
