Our Story

Founded in March 2018 by Mike Samet and Chris Clark, Digital Ignite began with a bold vision and emerged as one of the Southeast’s standout agencies, bringing programmatic advertising and real-time bidding to Charleston. By keeping media buying and strategy in-house, we give our clients a unique edge in a competitive market.

Since our inception, we have continued to grow and evolve. With a focus on constant innovation, we have expanded our service offerings and tech capabilities while fostering a collaborative, diverse culture that fuels both internal growth and client success.

Today, Digital Ignite partners with some of the biggest brands, including Love’s, Diamond Baseball Holdings, Le Creuset, The Citadel, Charleston Riverdogs, and The American Resort Development Association (ARDA). Our dedication to innovation and results earned us recognition as one of INC. Magazine’s 5000 fastest-growing companies in 2020 and 2021.

We are proudly rooted in Charleston, SC and support local organizations like Lowcountry Local First, The Harbour Entrepreneur Center, The College of Charleston, Children’s Museum of the Lowcountry, Citadel Athletics, and The Charleston Animal Society. Our story is one of growth, innovation, and a deep commitment to both our clients and the local community.

Enthusiasm

We bring big energy to everything we do because passion drives results—and it’s contagious.
