Today we’d like to introduce you to Gino Sesto.
Gino, please share your story with us.
In 2009, I started DASH TWO in Culver City as a media buying agency primarily working for Music Business clients. Our initial clientele was Record Labels, Artists, and Record Distributors. The business has grown to 20 employees. With offices in Culver City and Nashville, DASH TWO still works a lot with the Music Industry, but has grown beyond that. DASH TWO now works with Fashion, Movie, Music, and Packaged Goods. As well as many others. But the focus is there.
DASH TWO does primarily Digital Advertising and Outdoor Advertising. The two forms of media tend to complement each other. The ability to ignite Social Media is often times the rationale to do outdoor advertising. Creating engaging outdoor ads that users want to share on their social media platforms.
DASH TWO is a member of OAAA, Think LA and many other organizations, and is an accredited Google Premier partner.
We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
The road has been long and hard. Many of the challenges have been more internal than external. Finding the right employees who want to grow a company with you has been the biggest hurdle. Luckily after years of growth, we have gotten to the point where our current employees are helping tremendously to get us to the next level of our growth spurt. Loyalty to our business for new hires can be hard, especially in the current job market and the tendency to change jobs often.
So let’s switch gears a bit and go into the Dash Two story. Tell us more about the business.
DASH TWO specializes in Digital Advertising and Outdoor Advertising. Our client base is some fortune 500 companies to small campaigns for small businesses. We are not so large that we turn down business for smaller clients. We look at the smaller clients as our future bigger clients.
Has luck played a meaningful role in your life and business?
Luck was absolutely pivotal in the beginnings of DASH TWO. The start of the company was with 1 client with family funding in the middle of the great depression. It was created because Gino Sesto could not find legitimate work elsewhere and began the company in his grandfather’s entrepreneurial spirit.
