# Roar Media

> Roar Media is a privately held, Miami-area integrated marketing agency founded in 2008 by Jacques Hart and Jolie Balido. It combines public relations, strategy, creative, media, content, technology and analytics, selling the coordination of those disciplines to tourism, hospitality, real-estate, professional-services, consumer and public-sector clients. Its most persuasive distinction is practical: Roar publishes unusually specific campaign numbers, including spend, revenue, leads, placements and homes sold, instead of asking clients to admire the work on aesthetics alone.
