Six Months After its Debut, Thunderly Electrifies with New Clients, Expanded Capabilities, National Recognition and a Team Retreat in Music City

Agency debuts on the 2025 Inc. 5000 list of America's
fastest-growing private companies

DALLAS, Sept. 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Following a bold rebrand, Thunderly, a full-service franchise marketing agency based in Dallas-Fort Worth, celebrates a milestone-packed six-months, fueled by new client partnerships, expanded capabilities, national recognition—and an unforgettable company retreat in Nashville.

The rebrand, unveiled in March, brought together two of the most respected names in franchise marketing, BizCom Associates and Brand J, under a single dynamic identity. With a renewed focus on integrated marketing and growth strategies, Thunderly capabilities now include paid search, digital advertising, website design, video production, public relations, social media, thought leadership, crisis communications, graphic design and podcast production, all under one roof.

"Our rebrand wasn't just a name change—it was a signal of our evolution," said Scott White, CEO and co-founder of Thunderly. "We've combined decades of expertise with a modern, more agile and unified approach to help today's brands grow louder, faster, and smarter."

Key milestones from Thunderly's first six months include:

• Took Nashville by storm with its annual agency retreat, bringing the remote team together in Music City for big-picture strategy sessions, team challenges, and community impact through Thunderly CARES. Keynote presentations from agency partner Dr. John P. Hayes, Titus Chair for Franchise Leadership at Palm Beach Atlantic University's Titus Center for Franchising, and MassageLuXe President and CEO Kristen Pechacek left the team inspired and energized for the future.
• Debuted on the 2025 Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest-growing private companies. Recognized as the most prestigious ranking of entrepreneurial businesses, the Inc. 5000 honors companies that are driving innovation, creating jobs, and achieving remarkable growth.
• Signed new client agreements with Kilwins, BNI (Business Networking International), Home Helpers, Home Franchise Concepts, Ziebart International and Burn Boot Camp.
• Existing clients across the food, health, and service sectors deepened their partnerships with Thunderly, expanding both their retainer commitments and project work.
• Secured media coverage for clients in national outlets including AP News, TODAY, CNN Underscored, Real Simple and Better Homes & Gardens.
• Appointed Jack Monson as chief growth officer of Thunderly, who also serves as Chair of the International Franchise Association's Marketing & Innovation Committee, where he will lead initiatives to foster collaboration and innovation in the franchise industry.
• Across cities and causes, Thunderly team members showed up big for national volunteer week—serving their communities in various ways from mentoring the youth to preparing meals.

"Our rebrand reflects the momentum we've been building as a team—our clients are expanding, our campaigns are delivering results, and our team continues to raise the bar," added Monica Feid, COO and co-founder of Thunderly.
