Show Notes

Today we have another great episode lined up for you. It’s another in person episode which always turn out great here at Half Coast Studios. 

My guest and I just met this past December through one of my friends. He’s got an incredible software that serves a massive purpose in the Google PPC space. I’m excited to learn more about him though, and for him to share his story with the audience as he’s been a serial entrepreneur for quite some time while previously running a marketing agency. 

My guest today is Derek Mabie. Derek is a serial entrepreneur here in St. Louis. 

Derek Mabie was most recently the CEO and founder of Evolve Digital Labs, business intelligence and digital consulting firm headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri. Evolve was purchased in 2020 by Blue Holdings LLC, ten years after its inception.

Under Derek's leadership, Evolve has perfected an innovative digital framework for healthcare organizations that minimizes the risk of marketing waste and strategizes growth around completing patient and consumer “jobs-to-be-done” online.

He was proudly the driving force behind Evolve’s innovative and data-focused approach in aiding healthcare organizations to identify and resolve their digital product and transformation challenges and strategizing actionable and holistic opportunities for predictable and profitable growth online.

During his tenure, Derek and Evolve Digital Labs were tapped by companies like PayPal, Merck, Charter Communications, Siteman, Washington University, and Enterprise Rent-A-Car to help fuel growth, innovate online, and delight customers.
