Why You Should Work at BlinkJar Media

Hey everyone, it's Jared at Blinkjar. When I started BlinkJar Media in 2012, I did so with a vision: to create a workplace where creativity thrives, ideas become reality, and results matter. I wanted to build an agency that wasn't bogged down by red tape but instead empowered its people to innovate, learn, and enjoy their work. If you're thinking about joining our team, there's no better way to get a true feel for BlinkJar than to hear directly from the people who live it every day. Their insights and experiences offer the clearest window into what it's really like to be part of our team. Here's why BlinkJar might be the perfect place for you.

1. Small but Nimble – Your Voice Matters

One of the biggest frustrations I had in my previous career in broadcast television advertising was the endless approval processes. Good ideas often died before they had a chance to shine. At BlinkJar, we cut through the red tape. If you have a great idea, we act on it. We are small and nimble, meaning every team member's voice matters. If you thrive in an environment where creativity isn't stifled but celebrated, you'll fit right in here.

"What I love most is that my ideas don't sit in someone's inbox—they come to life. That's rare in most workplaces."

– Amy Desselle

2. Embracing the Latest Technologies

The digital marketing world moves fast, and we don't wait for trends to come to us. When AI emerged in November 2022, we were one of the first agencies to develop an AI manifesto to guide our clients through this new technology. While many ignored AI or feared it, we embraced it and evolved. If you want to work somewhere that stays ahead of the curve, BlinkJar is the place to be.

"BlinkJar was built to stay ahead of the curve, not stuck in it. We're always scanning the horizon for what's next—and embracing it for the good of our clients."

– Jared Broussard

3. A Culture of Continuous Learning

Marketing is ever-changing, and we love it that way. Google updates its algorithm, Meta shifts its policies, and we see these as opportunities rather than obstacles. One of our core values is competency—if we aren't learning, we aren't growing. Every quarter, we dedicate an entire workday to learning and certification, whether in Google Ads, TikTok Marketing, or another key area. We don't just keep up; we lead the way.

"Our certification days are like pit stops—we refuel, recalibrate, and come back even stronger for our clients."

– Rikki Broussard

4. Flexibility That Works for You

Work-life balance isn't just a buzzword for us. I wanted BlinkJar to be the opposite of my rigid experience in broadcast advertising. That's why we offer a hybrid work schedule—two days from home, three in the office—and unlimited PTO. Of course, with great power comes great responsibility, so we expect our team to apply sound judgment when taking time off. The bottom line? We trust our employees to manage their time effectively.

"The ability to shape my workday around life's needs is the most empowering part of being at BlinkJar."

– Cheri Fasy

5. We Love Pets (and They Love Us!)

If you check out our website or social media, you'll notice we have a thing for pets. Our office is rarely without a furry friend running around, and we even feature our pets on our About Page. If you're an animal lover, you'll feel right at home here.

"There's nothing quite like brainstorming with a furry friend curled up at your feet. It just makes the day better."

– Amy

6. Be a Key Contributor to Client Success

Unlike large agencies where you're just another cog in the machine, at BlinkJar, every team member plays a direct role in client success. We focus on measurable results—ensuring that every campaign we run contributes to real business growth. You'll see firsthand how your work makes a difference, giving you a deeper sense of purpose and impact.

"When a campaign you helped create delivers real results—it's a reminder that what we do truly matters."

– Ashley Roth

7. Experienced Leaders in Marketing and Advertising

At BlinkJar, you'll be working under the guidance of experienced leaders in the marketing and advertising industry. Both Rikki Broussard and I have deep roots in the Baton Rouge advertising scene. I spent fifteen years working for local television stations, where I gained invaluable experience in helping local businesses grow. Through my exposure to countless marketing consultants and industry experts, I developed a holistic approach to marketing that differentiates our clients. I continue to apply these methodologies at BlinkJar today.

Rikki, on the other hand, has nearly twenty years of experience in print advertising, all with Country Roads Magazine. Her extensive knowledge in print media translates seamlessly into the work we do at BlinkJar, helping our clients navigate the ever-changing marketing landscape.

What does this mean for you? It means you're learning from seasoned professionals who have weathered the highs and lows of the industry. We know how to treat clients, critically analyze situations, and apply strategic solutions. While platforms may evolve, the fundamental principles of marketing remain unchanged. At BlinkJar, you're not just working for a company that suddenly decided to start a marketing firm—you're gaining insights from industry veterans who have stood the test of time. If you value learning from experienced professionals, BlinkJar is your place.

"Interning at BlinkJar has taught me more than any classroom. Real experience with real experts—that's what makes this place different."

– Ashton Mouton

8. Happiness is Our #1 Core Value

A happy team creates happy clients. We want every BlinkJar team member to enjoy what they do. We focus on finding areas of strength for each person so they can excel and do work they genuinely love. When you're engaged in meaningful work, happiness follows naturally.

"When you're doing work that aligns with your strengths, happiness isn't a goal—it's just part of the day."

– Rikki

9. Commitment to Community

We love Baton Rouge and believe in giving back. In 2025 alone, we were involved in community initiatives like LWCC's Speaker Series and the Mary Bird Perkins cancer awareness campaign, "Geaux Grizzly." I also personally give back by speaking at local universities like LSU, helping to educate the next generation of marketing professionals. If community involvement is important to you, you'll love being part of BlinkJar.

"Giving back to Baton Rouge through BlinkJar has been one of the most fulfilling parts of my job. We're not just marketers—we're neighbors."

– Maddie Sieg
