Diamonds are forever.

They shine bright, they're a girl's best friend, and as of Friday, November 13th, they are what we are honored to call ourselves here in the IMPACT office. 

On behalf of Bob, Tom, and the whole team, I'm proud to formally announce that IMPACT is now officially a HubSpot Diamond Partner Agency! After reaching the Platinum level in August of 2013, Diamond status is something our team has worked tirelessly towards ever since it was first introduced in 2014. 

We couldn't be more excited about this achievement and we are honored to be ranked alongside the seven other distinguished agencies in the Diamond tier.

Thank you to all of our clients, talent, and industry peers who have helped us hit this milestone and we look forward to celebrating more days like this with you in 2016!

“Making the decision to become a HubSpot partner was one of the best decisions this agency ever made,” says IMPACT founder and CEO, Bob Ruffolo.

And I’m so proud of all of our team members....With all of this in place, we’ve done some amazing things, and we’re still nowhere near the limit of what this agency can accomplish”
