May is Mental Health Awareness Month 🧡🪴

Mental health affects everyone, and we make a point to acknowledge that as a company. We believe that if you can't take care of yourself, you can't show up fully for your work, your team, or your clients. So we take it seriously.

This year, every team member got to choose a plant and a pot to take home as their own. Caring for plants has real benefits: research shows it reduces stress, improves mood, and brings a sense of purpose to daily life. A small, daily reminder to tend to ourselves, too.

We also asked everyone to share one thing they'd say to a friend who's struggling with their mental health. The responses are worth reading.

Last Friday our team volunteered with the Milwaukee Habitat for Humanity ReStore and had a blast!

If you haven't heard of it, the ReStore sells donated home goods at heavily discounted prices and uses the proceeds to fund affordable housing in Milwaukee, while keeping usable stuff out of landfills. They have great inventory too, so definitely check it out if you haven’t!

We happened to show up during one of their busiest times of the month, so we got right to work 💪. Highlights included taking sledgehammers to old furniture, breaking down beds and other pieces for transport, loading and unloading inventory, organizing, and cleaning. We had a great few hours and will definitely be back at some point.

As our new account manager, Brittani jumped right in and is already getting introduced to client projects and quarterly planning. She's CRUSHING it and we can't wait to see the impact she makes for clients. ⚡️

Happy Earth Day! 🌎

As the weather (tries) to warm up, everyone is looking forward to spending more time outdoors, soaking up the sun, and reconnecting with nature.

Today is a great reminder that Earth is a sacred place, and it’s our responsibility to nurture it and actively help preserve it. Small actions add up: recycling, reducing waste, reusing what we can, and being more mindful of how we move through the world. At SocialSurge, we’re joining in on that reminder today too! 🧡

Here’s our proposal for the new Mount Rushmore 😎
What better way to recognize the founding fathers of SocialSurge than by putting them in stone? 🤣

Two different leadership styles. Two different perspectives. One shared vision that built what SocialSurge is today.

Eric and Kevin — we appreciate your vision and your passion, and the values you’ve built this company on:

Bring Energy. Be a Leader. Be Transparent. Team First. Growth Minded.

Before you Google "Google Ads hacks," start here. ✅

We see a lot of businesses jump straight into tactics — bidding strategies, Quality Score optimization, smart bidding vs. manual — without ever answering the most important question first:

Is Google Ads even the right fit for my business right now? 🤔

Learn how much Google Ads cost, what affects pricing, and if they’re worth it for your business. Tips for small budgets, ROI, and campaign success.
