“We’re pleased to share what we’ve accomplished in the larger world with the Duluth community, asking nothing in return accept for the glorious splendor of Lake Superior. We’re proud of the online marketing professionals we recruit, nurture and send to work with our clients, which range  from multi-national iconic brands to guerrilla entrepreneurs. UMD  did an awesome job with Manny and Merry.

To me, our business seems like actual economic development. Literally all of AIMCLEAR‘s clients are from other places in the world.  Unbelievably cool people move to Duluth from, like, Manhattan, to work with us. We pour all of that back into the local economy to help keep talented up-and-coming pros here.”
