Recognized Programmatic Advertising Leaders 2025

It's hard to write your bio without making the whole thing a humblebrag, but I'll do my best. Most people wouldn't peg me for a marketing guy - probably because my 6'2" 225lb frame makes me look like a 3rd string defensive lineman. Fortunately, I'm a much better marketer than looks would tell. In the past 7 years, I've consulted, managed, and overseen hundreds of client accounts and millions of dollars in ad spend. More importantly, I've been able to pass my knowledge on to our team here at Linear, and at this point, many of them have surpassed me in both education and skill. As a team, they've continually improved Linear's service offerings, built world-class processes, and amassed dozens of client success stories.At Linear, we love to partner with companies that want to grow but lack the bandwidth or knowledge to do so.Wanna learn more about our services?

Hey, I’m Mark Solis — CTO of AI Agency San Antonio. I’ve been in the digital marketing for a decade and ai automation space for over 2.5 years, building campaigns, streamlining business processes, and helping brands grow with smart tech. My focus is simple: use A.I. to help businesses save time, reduce costs, and scale faster without working harder. At AI Agency San Antonio, we specialize in building A.I. automation tools for businesses of all sizes — from small mom-and-pop shops to large companies across the U.S. Whether you need help with a custom chatbot, ai phone agent, automating customer service, or automating your internal business operations, we’ve got solutions ready to plug in and run. We work with industries like real estate, healthcare, legal, eCommerce, home services, events, hospitality, and more. I’ve seen firsthand how automation changes everything — from lead gen to customer support and even internal operations. A well-placed chatbot or phone agent can literally save a team 30+ hours a week. We’re based out of Timberwood Park on the North East Side of San Antonio, just off Judson Road — but we serve clients across the country. San Antonio is home base, and I love working with businesses along Highway 281, 1604, and into the downtown tech corridor. What drives me? I’m obsessed with efficiency and creating systems that work around the clock. I stay sharp by following industry leaders like Sam Altman, Fei-Fei Li, and Andrew Ng, and I always keep tabs on what’s next in the A.I. world. According to PwC, A.I. could contribute up to $15.7 trillion to the global economy by 2030 — and I’m here to help business owners claim their piece of that. If you’re ready to explore what A.I. can do for your business — or even if you’re just curious — reach out. Let’s talk about what you’re doing now and how we can make it smarter.
