Directive is a B2B marketing agency structured across three divisions—Performance (paid media, demand gen, creative), Commerce (marketplace, lifecycle), and Communications (PR, social)—serving technology, industrial, and services brands. The tech stack reveals a mature programmatic buying operation (DV360, The Trade Desk, Google Ads) paired with demand-generation and attribution tooling (6Sense, LeanData, Gong, Outreach), while the project backlog and hiring velocity (120 roles posted in 30 days, mostly marketing and HR) signal aggressive scaling of demand-gen capabilities and internal talent acquisition infrastructure.
