Our History
Thrive Internet Marketing Agency is the brainchild of Matt Bowman, Thrive’s president and founder. Bowman grew up in an entrepreneurial family and was inspired to continue his grandparents’ legacy of running a business. He saw how his grandparents took care of their customers and employees and gave back to the community, and wanted to adopt this culture.
In 2005, Bowman ventured into digital marketing and established MLB Web Design (now called Thrive). After a year of operations, the team started expanding and hiring new employees to meet the company’s growing demands. In the same year, MLB web design was renamed Thrive Internet Marketing Agency.
What started as a small team has now grown into a full-service digital marketing company with additional offices in Texas, Minnesota, Florida, New York and more!
Matt Bowman became a fifth-generation business owner by starting MLB Web Design.
In 2012, MLB Web Design rebranded to Thrive Internet Marketing Agency.
Matt Bowman partnered with Kurt Knapton, a strategic investor, to support Thrive’s growth.
Thrive reached 15 years in business, establishing itself as one of the nation’s leading internet marketing agencies.
For the fifth consecutive year, Thrive was named to the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing companies in America.
For more than 16 years, Thrive has been recognized as a top-rated digital marketing company by some of the industry’s leading review sites, including SEOblog, Clutch, UpCity and InfluencerMarketingHub.
In 2021, Thrive conquered another milestone, having been named to the Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing companies in America for the fifth consecutive year. According to Inc., only 4 percent of the companies featured in the annual Inc. 5000 since 1982 have made the list five consecutive years. We continuously optimize our processes to ensure the company remains our clients' go-to digital marketing service provider.
We Do Things the Right Way
Thrive’s success is deeply rooted in its culture and values. We maintain a strong company culture built on our core values to ensure our clients and employees are satisfied with their growth.
More than delivering white-hat services to our clients, we also prioritize our team's personal and professional improvement. We invest in training and education to enhance our experts’ skills and create a community of efficient and responsible employees.
Our goal is to provide a meaningful and rewarding workplace for everyone.

We Like To Give
At Thrive, we believe that our community is a big part of our continued success. That is why in every new client we work with, we give a micro-loan to another aspiring entrepreneur from Kiva to help them grow their business. Additionally, we also do employee charity matching and community service to play our part in making a positive difference in the lives of our local communities.
