As Adbongo was being formed in 2006, the world wide financial system was about to collapse. Up until then, cause marketing and green business practices were seen as little more than a gimmick by the rest of the business world. After the dust from the crash of 2008 had begun to clear, it soon came to light that sustainable business’, operating under the “triple bottom line (people, planet, profit),” were continuing to move along and prosper. While many big business’ had been running on an empty tank, over the speed limit while looking at the map upside-down, sustainable business’ had been borrowing lightly, anchoring themselves solidly in their local communities, poised for the unexpected. Apparently it pays to do right. Read more …

John Bush, On DEMAND CMO

In 2006, after years of planning, John Bush manifested his dream company, Adbongo, Inc. Since that time, he has steered the evolution and expansion of the ship from its beginnings as a boutique advertising firm to its current incarnation as a clean business accelerator with specialization in ecosystem design.

John weds the best of seemingly disparate worlds: the hard-core discipline of military life with the creative skills and passion of an artist. Leading up to his creation of Adbongo, Mr. Bush gained his “captain” skills through his five successful years in the U.S. Marines where he served as First Team Leader in the Middle East, finishing his service at the rank of Staff Sergeant. Since he was a young child, John has nurtured multiple modalities of artistic expression. Painting is still his favorite today. The artist in John keeps Adbongo moving forward, beyond the cutting edge, while the military leader in him focuses on the structure necessary to keep such an ambitious operation from flying off the train tracks.
