OuterBox celebrate their US Search Awards win.
We’re thrilled to share that OuterBox has been named Best Large Integrated Search Agency at the 2025 U.S. Search Awards—one of the most respected honors in digital marketing.
These awards celebrate the agencies and teams redefining what’s possible in search.
To be recognized among the best is an incredible benchmark for our organization. The judges commended OuterBox for “exemplifying transformation over disruption,” highlighting how our 2024 merger with TopSpot created one of the nation’s largest independent performance marketing agencies—built for growth, grounded in collaboration, and driven by results.
A Year of Transformation and Growth
This win comes on the heels of bold change and shared purpose. The merger brought together two veteran agencies with 20+ years of marketing expertise and the same goal: to deliver integrated digital marketing that fuels real business growth.
Now, our 250+ U.S.-based experts serve more than 1,000 clients nationwide, delivering a full suite of services—from SEO and paid media to CRO/UX, web design and development, email marketing, and analytics.

Unlike most mergers, this one wasn’t just about scale—it was about possibilities. We didn’t just combine operations; we built a culture rooted in alignment, trust, and purpose. Through open communication, cross-team collaboration, and continuous learning, we came together as one team focused on one thing: growth.
It’s the relentless pursuit of what’s next for us as an agency and what’s next for our client partners.
Innovation That Drives Results
Innovation isn’t a buzzword here—it’s our backbone. The U.S. Search Awards recognized how we turn technology into a real client advantage.
With LOOP Analytics, our proprietary platform connecting marketing performance directly to lead quality, and OBx Chat, our AI-powered internal research and content tool, we help both our team and our clients make smarter, faster, and data-driven decisions.
At OuterBox, we don’t just keep up with the evolution of marketing—we help lead it. Because when we stay ahead, our clients do too.

A Recognition of Teamwork and Vision
Entering the U.S. Search Awards gave us the opportunity to reflect on just how far we’ve come since the merger. The application was a celebration of our team’s resilience, creativity, and collaboration through a time of transformation. Winning this award validates what we’ve built together and that when we invest in each other, success follows.
“This award is great recognition of our teammates’ efforts,” said Jeff Allen, CEO of OuterBox. “We believe every business in America deserves the best integrated marketing work—and this award reflects the dedication of our people who make that possible every day.”
Winning Best Large Integrated Search Agency is more than a trophy—it’s a reflection of our incredible team and the trust our clients place in us to help them grow in a constantly changing digital landscape.
We’re beyond grateful to the U.S. Search Awards for this recognition, to our clients for their continued partnership and trust, and to every OuterBox team member (known as Boxers). This team exemplifies our belief that growth is oxygen.
This win is proof that when strong teams come together, they can create something extraordinary—and we’re just getting started.
