White Label was founded in 2012 by Alejandro Garcia who has focused on building the agency's reputation on measurable performance and transparency, and has championed the use of data to generate insights that allow it to reach each client's goals. With a dedicated team of 30 performance marketing specialists, the agency specializes in SEO (search engine optimization), SEM (search engine marketing), CRO (conversion rate optimization), social, paid media and digital analytics.
