Owners Philosophy

Patrick Profita is the owner of Plaid Agency with love and passion for helping businesses grow. Through his experience as an entrepreneur, he has experienced the burdens and joys of being self-employed his whole life. Patrick understands what it takes to be successful in business and in life and wants to help guide you down the right path. He believes there is a wrong way and right way of doing things in all aspects of life. When you take shortcuts, your success will be short lived. This is why Patrick will always take the right approach to your business and treat it as if it were his own. 

Favorite quotes from his father that guide his principals:

“Do it right or don’t do it at all and not doing it right is not an option.”

“Do it better than the other guy.”

History

Patrick was raised in a small town in southeastern Wisconsin where he is the oldest of two siblings. He was raised with the values of respect, honesty, and hard work from the very beginning. Being raised by a mechanic and a customer service rep, Patrick learned the value of hard work and was taught to think for himself. This is probably why he and his brother are pretty decent entrepreneurs.

During his childhood, Patrick and his family raced motocross and competed at national events throughout the country. Racing motocross was a fun family activity for nearly 15 years which gave him a strong sense of family values. 

Motocross was his first childhood love, but when his parents bought their first personal computer in 1996 a second passion raged inside him. This was when the internet and web design intrigued him. He first started building websites for his school and gaming guilds. With his passion and commitment, he learned basic HTML and CSS through the old programs called Dreamweaver and Adobe Page Builder.

It wasn’t until he was in college that he started his first business (2005) fixing and repairing cell phones. He gained attention and visibility by learning to implement SEO to his business websites to drive more traffic and business.

History Continued

Through his continued trial and error in SEO and paid ads such as Google AdWords, Patrick rebranded the company and started fixing iPads and Chromebooks for schools and insurance companies. He gained substantial growth through his SEO strategy and this company became a multi-million dollar repair depot.

In 2010, he realized that he was pretty good at building companies, branding, web design and search engine optimization that he started helping his brothers and friends companies grow. Companies such as chromebookparts.com and gophermods.com experienced rapid growth and are both now leaders in their respective industries because of Patrick’s understanding of search optimization and website architecture.

It wasn’t until 2022 that Plaid Agency was formed and started taking on new clients.  His passion and experience in digital marketing will elevate your business for years to come.

Our Story

How did Plaid Agency come to be and more importantly, why? The short answer is that it came to life during a brainstorming call with the owner’s brother. The owner, Patrick and his brother were trying to identify each other’s strengths and weaknesses and were just spit balling new businesses to start. From there, the light bulb turned on and Patrick’s brother said, “I got it! You have a talent; you didn’t realize you had that can help other people! Start a digital marketing agency. You already built multiple successful companies by doing SEO and AdWords! Share your success with other people!” This is when the “ah ha” moment happened.

With much excitement and a bottle of chardonnay down the hatch, Patrick started joking about company names because that is the next logical step, right? Since Spaceballs was an iconic movie and one of the owners’ favorites, Patrick said to his brother, “I can take companies from ZERO-PLAID!” Which is a reference to the speeds at which the ships travel through space in the movie. It was a perfect brand message and summed up what Patrick would be able to do for small businesses and their visibility online. It was a no brainer for the owner to get into digital marketing with his extensive knowledge of small business ownership, entrepreneurship, and degree in marketing. Plaid Agency was born.

How we help you

We are innovative problem solvers and with that being said we are always learning new ways to get your business noticed through SEO, PPC and a properly built website. Digital marketing is a multifaceted business and there are always changes to search engines and social media that your competitors aren’t paying attention to. By constantly learning and adapting to the changes we are able to put your company ahead of the competition, which will gain you more visibility and new customers.


We will not only manage your digital presence, but we will also work with you to improve processes, your branding/ appearance and customer service. This is something you aren’t hiring us for but we will be talking about it because these are fundamental business concepts that cannot be ignored. We can build you a great digital marketing campaign, but if the processes and customer service are not there, then it is all for nothing.


In the post pandemic world, customer service is something that has taken a backseat in a lot of businesses, and it is now more important than ever. Treat your customers the way you expect to be treated, go above and beyond for them and they will be clients forever. Don’t forget to smile and be pleasant! We are a fully transparent and honest company so with that being said, we won’t be able to work with companies with poor attitudes or reputations. We just wouldn’t work well together to complete common business goals. We want to see your business succeed on all levels!

Our Values

Transparency

We will be transparent with you from day one. Most agencies are always hiding something from you to keep you licking your chops and dragging out marketing campaigns. At Plaid Agency, we don't believe in hiding anything from you. You will be educated about SEO and PPC so you can make better decisions regarding your business.

Honesty

Much like our transparent values, we value honesty above all. All of the owners’ companies have been founded on these principles and much of our company’s success is based on honesty. We want you to feel like part of the team and we will always tell you if something is going well or it isn't.

Communication

What is the number one reason business or personal relationships fail? You guessed it! COMMUNICATION! If we aren't effectively communicating what we want from one another, then the relationship is doomed to fail. This is why we value an open and honest relationship with our clients. If you don't like something, then tell us! Don't bottle it up! We will listen to what you have to say!

Relationship Building

We build long lasting relationships through our honest and transparent values. That is why we don't lock our clients into contracts. By building honest and strong relationships with our clients, we are confident that you will be working with us for a long time. Plaid Agency values each and every one of our clients and we will go above and beyond for you.
