Company Background
Morpheus Media was founded in March of 2001 during the dot-com crash. While most people thought starting an online interactive advertising agency was insane, Jamie Driver, Alex Golimbu and Shenan Reed, the founders of Morpheus Media had other plans and were undeterred by the negativity surrounding the industry. They funded themselves by charging their personal credit cards and working out of their homes for the first year. Beyond developing marketing plans and asking their clients to ‘just trust us,’ Morpheus Media educates its clients about the ever-changing online marketplace and all the tools at its disposal.
