Our Sum is Greater than Our Parts
JDA is a portfolio company of Prolific, the growth firm. Prolific holds a collection of companies and capabilities focused on one thing – growth. JDA proudly anchors this talented network of over 140+ teammates across our network.
A History Rich in Experience
JDA has seen new technologies emerge, trends come and go, and markets shift in the advertising and marketing industry since 1987. We know the tried and true levers that unlock growth and continuously stay on the front lines of innovation.
Prolific Chairman, Brad Benbow, has made a lifetime of it. Benbow co-founded Rutter Communications, helping scale the national advertising sales firm to 17 markets coast to coast; eventually selling its burgeoning markets to multiple telecom giants across the country. This led Benbow to co-found JDA and begin operations in 2003 to serve clients in a full-service capacity.
Let’s slay giants together.
