We believe that transparency is the cornerstone of a successful agency-client relationship. As an agency, we understand the importance of keeping clients informed every step of the way, from campaign planning to execution and beyond. With Marketsmith, clients can expect clear and open communication regarding budgets, strategies, and performance metrics. This transparency enables clients to have a comprehensive understanding of their advertising efforts and fosters a sense of trust and collaboration.
Weβre Engaged
They say itβs called βworkβ and not βfunβ for a reason, but thankfully the two arenβt mutually exclusive. Our employee groups ensure that team members not only stay involved with each other and the company through exciting activities, they also provide opportunities to enrich minds and broaden perspectives. These groups are outward representations of how we, as a company, hold ourselves accountable for living our core values and mission.
WEβRE CERTIFIED
WE’RE CONNECTED
Weβre good people who do good things
Our growth mindset goes beyond business and brands. There is an understanding among each one of us that we have the power and responsibility to help our local and global communities grow stronger, healthier, more resilient and happier through our professional skills and personal talents. Because we can.

Itβs National Recovery Month, which focuses on raising awareness surrounding mental health and substance abuse recovery. The New Jersey Department of Human Servicesβ 844-ReachNJ help line is for NJ residents looking for help with a substance use disorder. Each call to 844-ReachNJ is answered by a live person, and trained staff identifies caller needs, provides referrals to supportive services, and makes connections to treatment providers. Call 844-REACHNJ if you or someone you know is in need of addiction assistance.
From Marketsmith CEO and Founder, Monica C. Smith: "President Fiordaliso will be missed. His presence and impact will long be remembered as an executive who was a dedicated public servant and a key leader in NJ`s vision for Clean Energy. He was respected and strong in leading through the challenging climate change landscape and navigating its impact. His goal was to re-energize the State and make a better future, for not only his grandchildren, as he would refer to frequently in meetings, but also for the residents of the State. A member of the Governor`s cabinet and a frequent speaker about the clean energy future for the State of New Jersey, the consensus amongst us all: he was a good man that knew his way around what is important to the State now and in the future.
President Fiordaliso was the President that brought Chloe the Clean Energy Bug to life. He understood the importance of exciting New Jersey residents and their children by showing them what a clean energy future could be. That it could be achieved by lower carbon emissions, electric vehicles and incentivizing residents and businesses to replace older appliances with energy efficient ones. It was an honor to know him and work with him through the years. The State has lost two great public servants in a short period of time - as a leader in the State I will miss him and the Lt. Governor Sheila Oliver both very much. To the President`s family, please know that he spoke of you often and fondly. May he rest on angels` wings and may you all be comforted in this time of great sorrow. President Fiordaliso made a difference and his work will continue to live on through those that were closest to him."
Congratulations to Samantha Foy on her well deserved promotion to EVP, Strategy. Sam has grown our national and state buying team and brings new and innovative strategies to our clients every day. We can`t wait to be a part of what`s next.

The state has lost a true trailblazer in Lt. Governor Sheila Oliver. Making history as the first Black woman to serve as speaker of the state Assembly, she passionately advocated for the underserved communities and cities in New Jersey. Marketsmith is honored as an organization to have known her, and will continue to honor her in the work we do for our communities in this great State.
"Our Lt. Governor was a true champion and a kind soul who led with bravery in her heart. She accomplished so much. I will miss seeing her at events, hearing her words of encouragement and enlightenment. Her focus to deliver a point subtly and respectfully was unmatched. I am grateful for knowing her and being known by her. Thank you Lt. Governor. I wish I could have said that to you one last time to you, for all you did for this State." - Monica C. Smith, Marketsmith CEO and Founder.
