AdAge Recognizes YML as Standout Agency of 2021

YML has been included on AdAge’s 2021 A-list — one of the most prestigious honors in the industry — as a Standout Agency. This recognition is awarded to agencies who effectively blend creativity and business strategy with bold leadership and the ability to point the industry in new directions.

"YML is the agency built for transformation in the year everything changed," according to Ad Age. "YML isn’t a traditional choice for this list; but this year has been anything but traditional. YML is the Silicon Valley, outcome-driven, digital product company balancing and blending sexy design with cutting-edge technology; all while, critically, driving business impact.” 

Through the pandemic, YML continued building digital experiences for essential services with new clients including Thrive Market and California Pizza Kitchen, as well as ongoing work with long-standing clients such as State Farm.

2020 By the Numbers

In the last year, YML won 12 new clients, grew revenue 60% YoY (3x 2019), won new business at an 86% rate, hired more than 150 people (45% growth YoY), and earned a 96% staff retention rate.

For State Farm, YML built a new digital platform enabling easier access to services like roadside assistance and accident repair. And for Thrive Market, YML implemented a data-driven customized and personalized experience for online shoppers that increased first-time orders by 16%.

Our Work

YML’s CEO and co-founder Ashish Toshniwal added, “Congrats to the YML team on this recognition from Ad Age! This is very much a testament to our continued success as the creators of digital products that make a lasting impact for our clients and their customers.”

“This is a huge honor,” said Sumit Mehra, YML’s co-founder, President and CTO,  “not only for our team but also for our clients. Their collaboration and trust allows us to build products at the speed and scale that YML is known for. It’s thrilling to see our team recognized for building exceptional digital experiences."
