June 2015 - Company Founded
Our story begins in 2015 as Adhawk, Inc., founded by Todd Saunders and Dan Pratt. AdHawk started as a small adtech company with approximately 50 employees, servicing a wide range of clients across many different industries. We operated out of a small office in New York City.
December 2018 - Our First Acquisition
After working with various clients, our vision started to narrow as we became more aware of the massive opportunity in the flooring industry. We acquired FloorForce in December 0f 2018, and they were the driving force behind us niching down to the flooring industry.
January 2020 - Broadlume Was Born
We acquired another digital marketing company in the flooring industry, this one with two brands: Creating Your Space and Bridgeway Interactive. After acquiring CYS, we completed our transition into the flooring industry. We dropped the AdHawk name, released our clients from other sectors, and created the Broadlume brand.
October 2020 - In A World Of Change
We brought on the brand Freetail, which allowed us to offer our clients a visualizer, enabling consumers shopping for flooring online to visualize how those products look installed.
July 2021 - Laying A Solid Foundation
We launched our Retail Selling System, a turn-key digital-to-physical retailing solution that provides consumers with an exceptional shopping experience, and retailers a consistent pipeline of leads.
Remainder of 2021- Rounding Out Our Portfolio
We acquired Retail Lead Management (RLM), adding the most prominent CRM in the flooring industry to our technology stack. We later acquired RollMaster, to help our customers manage accounting, costing, and inventory management.
September 2022 - The New Broadlume
After all these acquisitions and growing into the largest technology provider in the industry, it was time to bring everything together. We launched the industry's only All-In-One Marketing and Management Platform and relaunched our whole company as Broadlume.
