Integrated growth consultancy and marketing firm Marketbridge has been named the number one brand and demand agency in the United States by B2B Marketing’s 2025 US B2B Agency Benchmarking Report.
The company also ranked second overall among B2B agencies nationwide, securing its position as one of the fastest-growing players in the sector.
The annual report, widely seen as a definitive snapshot of the U.S. B2B agency landscape, analysed 29 top firms based on gross income from U.S. clients. To qualify, more than 50% of agency revenue had to be derived from B2B activity. Rankings also took into account agency growth rates and market impact.
John Shomaker, CEO of Marketbridge, said the recognition comes less than a year after the company’s official rebrand and relaunch as a combined consultancy-agency powerhouse.
“Our rapid rise validates that the market is demanding a new type of marketing services partner—one that brings together a unified, expert team that can help go-to-market leaders bridge big-picture strategy with real-world marketing activation,” he said. “It’s a combination that drives outsized growth for clients.”
Marketbridge’s integrated brand-to-demand programmes have supported growth for major B2B players including Chevron Lubricants, BioCatch, Teledyne FLIR, and National Geographic. The firm has also picked up 29 awards so far this year, including honours from the ANA B2B Awards, Communicator Awards, and Global ACE Awards.
Ashley DePaolo, managing director of agency services for North America, added: “These accolades highlight our agency team’s ability to deliver standout brand-to-demand experiences—and when paired with our consulting depth—help our clients go from strategy to activation seamlessly.”
The firm’s integrated model combines strategic consultancy with agency execution, aiming to resolve what it sees as a persistent challenge in B2B: the gap between strategy and delivery. “Organisations require a unified growth ambition across their entirety, regardless of global footprint or channel complexity,” said DePaolo.
Marketbridge was formed by uniting six best-in-class firms—COMM, fama PR, Intelisent, Quarry, MarketBridge, and April Six—into a single end-to-end provider of go-to-market (GTM) services. It now offers consulting, data and analytics, marketing activation and public relations under one roof, catering to complex B2B clients in industries such as technology, manufacturing, life sciences and energy.
The B2B Marketing US Agencies Benchmarking Report is considered an essential resource for brands looking to assess and shortlist marketing partners in the highly specialised B2B space. Marketbridge’s strong showing underscores the growing appeal of unified strategy-to-execution offerings in today’s competitive environment.
