LYFE Marketing may be the breath of fresh air you’re looking for in comparison to traditional marketing firms. Developed in 2011 by brothers Sean and Sherman Standberry and close friend Keran Smith, LYFE Marketing is a full-service social media marketing agency. Atlanta-based and overflowing with talent from Georgia State University and other local colleges, the marketing startup has worked with some pretty high profile clients, including the Atlanta Hawks and ABC’s Shark Tank. We were able to catch up with one of the founders and get the scoop on the company, why they’re located in Atlanta, and how they are serving the startup community.
