Geoff Conant to head up the new North American connection and conversion company

SDI Marketing announced the launch of kite – an innovative North American agency solution for person-to-person acquisition needs in the financial, retail and telecommunications industries, among others. Originally founded as part of SDI Marketing, an experiential and sports marketing agency, the loyalty business has evolved to explore and expand into new markets and categories across Canada and the U.S.

Built on a belief that the world needs more human, kite champions the eradication of “sales teams,” advocating it be replaced with “experience engineers” that build value in the lives of its clients, their customers, and the communities it works in.
