How 3 CEOs Created Great Cultures to Draw and Keep Top Talent

 Matt Walsh Interview

Erin Cigich, a 17-year industry veteran, is CEO of the award-winning outcome-based marketing company, Perform[cb]. Leveraging a true “outcome-based” approach, Perform[cb]’s philosophy is simple - to provide efficient and brand-safe media buys on incremental growth channels while exceeding marketers’ ROAS goals. Their Outcome Engine team acts as a top partner for many brands, like Capital One, LendingTree, and Walmart, to deliver consistent, high-intent traffic at scale. Under Erin’s leadership, Perform[cb] has undergone tremendous organic revenue growth, in addition to two successful sale processes to leading private equity firms and five strategic acquisitions. 

Jaime DiDomenico was born in Brooklyn, New York and raised on Long Island. He moved to Florida in the 1980s and has been working in home services ever since. After being selected to join a consolidator, he facilitated the purchase of Cool Today in 1998. He then purchased it for himself with a couple of partners in 2004. DiDomenico used his passion for people to transform Cool Today into the wildly successful business and tight-knit community it is today. Cool Today focuses on building lifelong relationships with each and every customer. This mentality has helped them to grow from their base in Sarasota to now service the Tampa, Naples and Orlando communities. Jaime sold CoolToday to Private Equity in 2019, and currently works as VP of Mergers and Acquisitions for the Wrench Group, the PE that purchased CoolToday.
