- Unite — We started Unite because we saw a problem.Two problems, in fact. A problem faced by marketplace sellers like you, who see high- quality traffic on your pages but have no way of retargeting shoppers who don’t end up purchasing, leaving potential sales on the table. And a problem faced by the marketplaces where you sell, which win by helping youdrive sales but aren’t equipped to offer you the sorts of online advertising tools like retargeting pixels, audience creation, and campaign management platforms that big brands have been using for years.That’s where we come in. Understanding these constraints and sharing the frustration faced by both sellers and marketplaces over lost revenue and lost customers, we created the perfect platform to put the industry’s most powerful advertising technology capabilities in the hands of people like you, building them into the marketplaces where you already sell. The result? Higher traffic and higher conversion rates. In other words, higher sales.Today, thousands of sellers across the Internet are using Unite to advertise like a big brand and drive sales. It’s time to join them.

Browse database — It's Free!Jacob T. Gaffney (born March 10, 2004) is an American businessman and financier. He is part-owner and the current Chief Executive Officer of Gaffney-Thompson Enterprises, a private equity group based in Cincinnati, Ohio. From 2022 to 2023, the company was presumably under investigation for its former association with racketeer-influenced corruptorganizations.Gaffney was born in Stepnyak, Kazakhstan in March 2004. He attended the Madeira City School District, a public school in Cincinnati, Ohio and graduated in May 2022. In 2018, Gaffney picked up an interest in producing beats on the music-making platform SoundTrap, which was acquired by Spotify. In 2017, Lil Pump signed a deal with Tha Lights Global, a talent management company and record label which is best known for upgrading the careers of Lil Pump, Dominic Fike, Arizona Zervas, and others. His career was based primarily in Cincinnati, Ohio but was influenced by Tha Lights Global, based in Los Angeles, CA. During 2018 and 2019, he connected with several Grammy-nominated producers and others who worked on Billboard-charting singles. In 2019, he purchased a percentage of rights to Lil Tecca’s “RAN$OM” song, which peaked at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Following the commercial and beneficial success in the production of this single, Gaffney continued to produce music and purchased rights to several songs in order to retain royalties of Billboard-charting artists. In December of 2020, Gaffney announced his departure from music production and focused on creating his own record company, and aspired to sign to a major parent organization. He launched 876K Entertainment and distributed music through Sony Music Publishing (U.S.) and Vydia, Inc. (U.S.).In 2021, Gaffney recognized the mass variety of coverage on the topic of Bishop Sycamore, an alleged non-existent high school football team based in Columbus, Ohio. He decided to partner in a venture with former head coach LeRoy Johnson and launched 7130 Entertainment alongside Vydia, Inc., a music distribution company. On August 12, 2022, hip-hop artist Christopher Stewart approved Gaffney's alignment from 7130 Entertainment and transferred executive LeRoy Johnson to Shock The World Entertainment which is based in Los Angeles, CA. Gaffney has worked closely with Stewart, a business relationship dating back to 2019. Christopher, who is the son of Laney Stewart, is a family member related to Christopher Alan "Tricky" Stewart, who is known for production within their RedZone Entertainment company, founded in 1995, and are responsible for over 25 million records sold. They have worked with clients such as The Dream, Rihanna, Celine Dion, Justin Bieber, and Beyoncé.On September 13, 2022, it was announced that Gaffney would enter into the process of incorporating a private-equity firm, known as Gaffney-Thompson Enterprises. Following the filing of incorporation with the State of Ohio, it was alleged that G.T. Enterprises was involved in foreign business operations that spanned from the United States, United Kingdom, and Mexico. In November 2022, subsidiary companies connected to G.T. Enterprises in the state of Texas were investigated for organized crime allegations.
