How to Maximize Value & Unlock Potential (Interview with Chris Martinez of Bloom)

Today is going to be a great episode. I recently met today’s guest at the end of last year through a mutual connection. We had the opportunity to hop on a zoom call and get to know each other and learn more about what we were up to in business. 

We both quickly realized that we knew a lot of the same people, and had both done some pretty incredible things in the digital marketing agency space. 

Finding people like today’s guest in the marketing space is hard to come by; because so many people are faking it; he is not. It’s a breathe of fresh air meeting people like him.

Today’s guest is Chris Martinez. He is the Founder & CEO of Bloom. They help agencies maximum value, unlock potential, and achieve an 8-figure exit.

Chris’ Bio:

Chris Martinez knows what it’s like to face challenges head-on—and win. As the CEO and Founder of Bloom, he has built a company from zero to millions in revenue, earning national recognition, including a Stevie Award in 2021 for Minority-Owned Business of the Year and a Silver Medal for Most Innovative Company Under 100 Employees. With over a decade of experience helping marketing agencies scale profitably, Chris has become a trusted advisor to agency owners looking to eliminate chaos, boost profits, and build businesses they can confidently sell.

Chris’s unique journey fuels his passion for helping others succeed. Born to a Chinese mother and a Mexican father, he learned early on how to navigate adversity and turn obstacles into opportunities. After losing his father to pancreatic cancer in 2007, Chris experienced dark years but found his way back through counseling, mentorship, and a commitment to giving back. This resilience is at the heart of his work with agency owners, as he helps them tackle their toughest challenges and build thriving, sustainable businesses.

At Bloom, Chris is more than just a CEO—he’s a problem-solver who rolls up his sleeves and works alongside agency owners to implement the systems, strategies, and accountability they need to scale effectively. Whether it’s streamlining operations, creating profit-driven plans, or building leadership teams, Chris is focused on delivering results that empower clients to take control of their businesses and their futures.

Beyond his business success, Chris is the author of four books, including It’s Not JUST a Website, a six-time Amazon Bestseller read by thousands. His latest book Facts Not Feelings is considered to be one of the greatest books on scaling a marketing agency of all-time. He also hosts the popular podcast Operation Agency Freedom, where he shares real-world insights and stories to inspire entrepreneurs.

When Chris isn’t helping agencies scale, you’ll find him playing soccer, training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, traveling with his wife, or spending time with his dogs.
