They’ll also receive the support of Qonkur’s award-winning account management team, by both email and phone, who can help their business grow every step of the way. Qonkur founder and CEO, Mike Berro has been passionate about marketing ever since he was 17 years old. Before he founded Qonkur, he was working for another marketing agency which enforced strict guidelines and creative conflicts over project briefs, which took a toll on his creative process. And that’s when he knew that he needed something of his own – thus, Qonkur was born. When he launched the company three years ago, Mike only had $18 in his pocket, and today, it is a multi-million-dollar industry-leading business with over 20 staff. He’d originally wanted to name the company ‘Conquer’, to symbolise his belief that whatever he creates will conquer the market, hence came ‘Qonkur’. A young but mature entrepreneur, Mike is now the marketing authority for cannabis in Michigan. Initially, Qonkur’s challenges were different from those of other businesses – It didn’t struggle to obtain investors or onboard clients, but it was the rapid growth that was the unique hurdle for Mike. It was in 2018 when the cannabis market saw a boom following its legalisation, and Qonkur fast dominated the industry with a whopping 11,000% growth rate. The company astonishingly reached its 2023 goal in 2020, exceeding all expectations. Mike and his team weren’t prepared for such a tremendous response, with the client list shooting up from three to 28 within six months. The company simply didn’t have enough time or a large enough team to service so many clients. Now, the Qonkur team is truly a top contender for being the best in the business. With a devotion to building and maintaining strong relationships with each client, it passionately, competently and reliably delivers every marketing solution a client could need, whether it’s website or app development, social media marketing, billboards, branding, or video production. Considering Qonkur’s substantial growth, and as it continues to grow its team and list of clients, Mike is confident that the company is on the right track to being the largest cannabis marketing agency in America by 2025, and the world by 2028.
