60 team members and growing quickly

Our founders, 
(CEO),
(CTO), and
(CFO), have been building companies in the direct-to-consumer commerce space for 10 years.

They met in Toronto at Hubba in 2014 and went on to found Shoelace, one of the first apps on Shopify to automate advertising for merchants. Shoelace eventually evolved into a growth marketing agency, serving top ecommerce and DTC brands.

When they launched Motion in 2021, the impact was immediate. Performance marketers, brands, and agencies were drawn by Motion’s ability to demystify and enhance the creative process. This translated into rapid growth with Motion tripling its revenue every year for the first three years and amassing over 1,000 customers.

Motion’s use cases are endless for advertisers. A24 Films, the studio behind award-winning films like Hereditary and Everything Everywhere All at Once, uses Motion to measure the effectiveness of its trailers.

HexClad, a premium cookware brand, increased top-of-funnel spend by 60 percent with Motion’s creative insights, while Meta and TikTok ad agency The Social Savannah saves 520 hours annually on creative reporting.

Growth stories

We bet on people and give them room to rise. Here are a few growth stories from a few Motion MVPs.

I believe culture is the single biggest differentiator between a successful startup and a non-successful startup. At Motion, it is very low ego, everyone feels comfortable to share, debate, and contribute their ideas.”

Elliott first met our founding team while working in a general entry-level marketing role. But his product visionary skills soon emerged.

Slowly, Elliott rose to become our Head of Product. And now leads our product organization.
