Teamwork makes the dream work — the classic, signature quote that reigns on walls of schools, community buildings, and offices; while it might look funny posted on vending machines during your break, the meaning remains true and if anyone can prove that, it’s Lara Schmoisman.
Lara is a business strategist and the CEO & Founder of The Darl, a boutique marketing agency known for breaking the rules when it comes to digital marketing, creating unique and multi-omni channel experiences and for different companies.
As a startup launching in 2019, and as many businesses start, The Darl’s first clients came from a combination of offering complementary services and the best marketing out there, word-of-mouth. Understanding that every business has different needs & not a ‘one size fits all’ concept, The Darl focuses on creating custom strategies and importantly, creating with purpose.
One of the many reasons why The Darl is becoming one of LA’s top Marketing Agencies is that they not only create — they educate their clients. Helping them understand the logistics and psychology behind what goes into their brand and how to resonate with their customers. Lara’s leadership is also the backbone of the Agency; Lara says her motto is “treat everyone as I would like my kids to be treated [and that] sometimes they need some TLC and other times, tough love, but always caring and always try to bring the best in each individual. I lead by example, I show up, I roll my sleeves up, and I get the work done.”
Even with the success of a team over 30, it hasn’t always been the easiest for The Darl. One of the hardest things that Lara found when launching was “finding the right team players that fit with the company’s culture and standards,” states Lara. “My team is a big global family; we have logistics and tools in place to make sure we are all part of a collaborative culture.”
Speaking of culture, one of the many perks and benefits working for The Darl is not only that it is 100% remote. Here’s what one employee has to say:
“What I enjoy most about working with The Darl is the human side of it. Although our team is global, it’s easy to feel like you know your co-workers for a lifetime. We are a very close team, who cares and works hard every day to aim for our clients’ goals.” – Agustina V, Executive Assistant & Office Manager
Lara is a former educator and is always offering tips and advice to help not only the team but the individual grow. Additionally, they do virtual challenges, exchange gifts, and celebrate birthdays!
