In 2024 Tinuiti experienced an incredible period of rapid change, including a structural redesign to a client-centric model, new brand positioning, and the official launch of our proprietary technology, Bliss Point by Tinuiti. Amidst all of this change however, I’m proud to say our culture and our commitment to remaining truly people-first remained at the forefront. Today’s recognition from Built In reaffirms that commitment, and marks a moment of celebration for the entire agency and a testament to the hardworking individuals behind the scenes who ensure we are continuing to build a diverse, inclusive, and modern workplace that best supports our employees’ ongoing success and happiness.

Tinuiti Earns Top Marks in Human Rights Campaign’s 2025 Corporate Equality Index

Nation’s Foremost Benchmarking Survey Recognizes Tinuiti’s Commitment to
LGBTQ+ Community and Workplace Equality

NEW YORK, NY – January 7, 2025 – Tinuiti, the largest independent full-funnel marketing agency across Streaming TV, Google, Meta, and Amazon, has earned a top score on the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s 2025 Corporate Equality Index (CEI), the nation’s foremost benchmarking survey and report measuring corporate policies and practices related to LGBTQ+ workplace equality.

The results of the 2025 CEI showcase how U.S.-based companies are promoting LGBTQ+ friendly workplace policies in the U.S. and abroad. The first year of the CEI included 319 participants, today the 2025 CEI places Tinuiti among 1,449 participants, further demonstrating the tremendous growth of the CEI.

The Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s 2025 Corporate Equality Index has recognized Tinuiti with top marks— an achievement that both recognizes and confirms our work as an ally to the LGBTQ+ community. While this is a proud moment for Tinuiti and our commitment to fostering a workplace of equity, inclusion, and support, it is also a moment for reaffirming our dedication, and acknowledging there is more progress to be made. Today, we hold ourselves and each other accountable as we continue seeking new opportunities to grow, while also nurturing additional initiatives and strengthening practices already in place.

Jeff Batuhan Chief People Officer, TinuitiJeff Batuhan

A top score on the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s 2025 Corporate Equality Index serves as testament to the hard work of Tinuiti’s dedicated DEI team. Through close collaboration with employee resource group (ERG) leaders and groups, as well as Tinuiti’s Diversity Council, the DEI team ensures Tinuiti provides a space for rights for underrepresented groups and continues to foster a workplace reflecting both diversity and equality. Tinuiti offers benefits to same and different-sex spouses, adoption benefits, fertility and surrogacy support, paid family leave, health insurance, dental/vision for different-sex spouses, same-sex spouses, different-sex partners, and same-sex partners.

Tinuiti further supports and promotes inclusion and visibility with an officially recognized LGBTQ+ employee group, called TinuitiPride+, and a Diversity Council that includes LGBTQ+ members. Tinuiti also offers philanthropic support for organizations including: SunServe, Sylvia Rivera Law Project, The Ali Forney Center, and Callen-Lorde. Policies are in place to prohibit philanthropic support (financial, in-kind, or employee matching donations) to any non-religious organizations that have a written policy of discrimination against LGBTQ+ people. New hires and employees, including managers, are required to regularly attend training that clearly states the firm’s non-discrimination policy, including gender identity and sexual orientation. These and more policies and practices are in place to ensure Tinuiti offers continuous support for LGBTQ+ employees and their families, today and into the future.

At its core, the work of the CEI is about understanding, commitment and compassion – it doesn’t happen overnight. Since the start of this work 22 years ago, we’ve seen drastic shifts in corporate America towards more equitable and inclusive working conditions, family formation and healthcare benefits, and nondiscrimination protections. At times, progress meets backlash from politically-motivated detractors, but more companies than ever before are dedicating the time and resources to reinforcing workplace inclusion. As a result, they are more competitive and more creative while attracting and retaining top talent and widening their consumer base. Our door is open for companies looking to learn more about supporting every single employee so they can bring their best to work.

Kelley Robinson President, Human Rights Campaign

Established in 2002, the 2025 Corporate Equality Index is the 22nd iteration of the nation’s leading benchmarking tool for evaluating a company’s LGBTQ+ workplace inclusion policies, serving employees, consumers, and investors. The full report is available online at www.hrc.org/cei

The Power of 20. Celebrating 20 Years.

A lot has happened since Tinuiti, then known as Elite SEM, opened our doors as a performance-driven digital marketing agency founded on search engine marketing. Since 2004, that small, scrappy search shop has evolved into the largest independent full-funnel marketing agency in the US, supporting global brands including household names such as Unilever, Poppi, and e.l.f. Cosmetics.

Timeline:
  • In 2009, a mere five years as an established agency, Elite SEM already proudly represented some of the nation’s leading companies, including household brands such as Audible, American Cancer Society, Diapers.com, Ethan Allen, Hugo Boss, Merry Maids, Terminix, TruGreen, and USA Today.
  • In 2015, Elite SEM’s hard work paid off taking home Ad Age’s Small Agency of the Year award. 
  • In 2017, big things were in motion. Tinuiti partnered with Mountaingate Capital, a leading private equity firm, catalyzing leadership and executive team growth and a wave of acquisitions, including ORIONCKB, an industry leader in paid social advertising; Email Aptitude, an established email provider; and CPC Strategy, a leading agency for Amazon.
  • By 2019, Elite SEM had vastly outgrown its roots in Earned and Paid Search and officially rebranded to become Tinuiti. 
  • In 2020, a newly minted Tinuiti embraced the ‘new normal’ and continued to accelerate while navigating the reverberations of a global pandemic. A busy (to say the least) year, in December of 2020 Tinuiti partnered with a leading growth-oriented investment firm, New Mountain Capital, to further investment in talent, capabilities, and products. 
  • In 2021, Tinuiti welcomed Amazon-specialist agency Ortega Group, as well as leading streaming media agency Bliss Point Media and its subsidiary, Prospect Point Media. 
  • Two years later, Tinuiti kicked off 2023 with another exciting acquisition, acquiring Ampush, a leading growth marketing agency with a core focus across social platforms.

Today, we are the largest independent performance marketing agency across the media that matters most, with $4 billion in media under management, more than a dozen established service lines, and an employee headcount now surpassing 1,200 people.

Tinuiti attributes these scores to Tinuiti’s audience and media planning approach, TAPS, and Tinuiti’s proprietary measurement suite, Bliss Point by Tinuiti—which includes products such as Rapid Media Mix Modeling (rMMM), Incrementality, Forecasting, In-store Sales Lift, Creative Insights, and Brand Equity-as the platforms and process that have lead to best-in-class- approach. 

The report, authored by Jay Pattisall, Vice President, Principal Analyst at Forrester Research, identified, researched, analyzed, and scored the 12 most significant digital global media management service providers via a 22-criterion evaluation assessing each provider’s Current Offering and Strategy. 

Jeremy Cornfeldt, President at Tinuiti, said: “To deliver true full-funnel success, brands must combine deep channel expertise with sophisticated audience and media planning. Tinuiti is the only agency to receive the highest score in the Media Planning criterion, with the Forrester report citing “Tinuiti excels in media planning through a next best customer approach, powered in equal parts by its TAPS planning process and proprietary Bliss Point technology.” To us, this long-awaited Forrester Wave report reinforces Tinuiti’s commitment to ongoing innovation and evolution—and that’s exactly what we set out to demonstrate.”

Tinuiti received the highest scores possible (5/5) in three criteria:

  • Media planning: “Tinuiti excels in media planning through a ‘next best customer approach,’ powered in equal parts by its TAPS planning process and proprietary Bliss Point technology.”
  • Measurement and attribution: Our measurement suite, Bliss Point by Tinuiti, sits at the center of our strategic process and fuels our teams to recognize real-time insights and actions.
  • Pricing flexibility and transparency: “[Tinuiti] boasts a superior pricing model with performance-based, time-and-materials, and SaaS-fee commercial models.” 

Officially unveiled earlier this year, Bliss Point by Tinuiti is a suite of patented measurement technology designed to help marketers achieve the optimal level of investment to maximize impact and efficiency. In conjunction with Bliss Point, TAPS, fuels an integrated marketing approach, working in lock-step with Rapid Media Mix Modeling (rMMM) to quantify the audience opportunity and consumer journey by driving upper-funnel success. Powered by TAPS, Tinuiti’s strategic process is a recursive cycle beginning with the highest-fidelity customer data, which is used to develop insights from existing customers. This enables optimized strategies and tactics across transaction, attention and persuasion, and collectively delivering the next best customer.

The report by Jay Pattisall, Vice President, Principal Analyst at Forrester Research, said: “Tinuiti is a good fit for traditional enterprise brands applying growth marketing tactics and digital-native, direct-to-consumer brands entering measurable mass marketing.” 

In the past five years, the agency has experienced tremendous growth, including three major transformations: a structural redesign to a client-centric model, new brand repositioning to reflect full-funnel capabilities and product-led approach, and the launch of Bliss Point by Tinuiti, the agency’s proprietary technology suite. During this period, Tinuiti’s Media Agency of Record revenue has tripled, proving that the agency’s product-driven, full-funnel performance model is exactly what brands need.

For four decades, Forrester Research has given business and technology leaders the information necessary to accelerate growth and make confident, informed decisions. Read The Forrester Wave™: Media Management Services, Q4 2024 here
