Hibu Inc. recently announced the acquisition of Ohio-based RevLocal, a digital marketing partner to SMBs and multi-location brands spanning the U.S.

“We are thrilled to welcome the talented team and loyal customers of RevLocal to Hibu,” said Kevin Jasper, Hibu’s CEO. “Digital marketing is rapidly changing and becoming increasingly complex, which creates real challenges for SMBs.

Marc Hawk, RevLocal’s CEO, said the acquisition will open up new marketing capabilities, services and technology to their customer base.

“We share Hibu’s commitment to market-leading results and service and are excited about the opportunities this will create for our customers and employees,” he said.

“RevLocal’s customers, local market presence, products and teams are highly complementary to our expansion plans as we continue to grow our reach into our target market,” added Mr. Jasper.
