Siteworx, LLC was a digital consultancy. The agency was best known for its work with large companies such as Time Warner Cable, Citrix, and Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group.[1] Siteworx rebranded as Shift7 Digital and was acquired by Merkle, Inc., a division of Dentsu Inc.
Siteworx was founded in 2002 by Tim McLaughlin and former VP of Creative, Rand Kramer.[2] McLaughlin served as chairman of the board[3] and is now a boardmember of Shift7 Digital.[4] Siteworx secured its first enterprise client in 2007 when Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group (MOHG) engaged Siteworx to build and manage MandarinOriental.com.[5] Over the subsequent years, Siteworx built a diverse portfolio composed primarily of large commercial clients.
In 2012, Siteworx received an investment from Riordan, Lewis & Haden, a private equity firm based in Los Angeles, CA that invests in high-growth, profitable enterprises with $20–$150 million of annual revenue.[6] In 2013, Siteworx was awarded the 2013 Corporate Growth Award for Corporate Growth Company of the Year ($25M - $75M category) by the National Capital Chapter of ACG (Association for Corporate Growth)[7] and then Siteworx CEO McLaughlin was named as a Finalist for the 2013 Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award.[8]
In 2014, Adobe Systems named Siteworx its North American Regional Partner of the Year[9] and Intershop appointed Siteworx as a strategic partner for integrating Intershop's omni-channel commerce platform and Adobe Experience Manager.[10] This was in addition to being named a Sitecore Certified Solution Partner.[11]
