Growing Muskegon communications firm creates four more technology jobs

A young and growing Muskegon-based marketing and communications company announced this week the creation of four new technology jobs.

Qonverge, 900 Third Street, added a server and infrastructure administrator, an interactive developer, a producer, and a server and infrastructure administrator.

“We’ve had pretty steady growth over the four years since we formed Qonverge,” says Jason Piasecki, CEO and co-owner with Andy Maciejewski. “Our gross revenue last year had 30 percent growth, and we’re on track to maintain that growth this year.”

Piasecki declined to divulge the company’s annual revenue.

Qonverge specializes in online and social media marketing and communications. The firm offers video production, branding and logo development, print design for tradeshow graphics and signage, brochures, audio production and podcasting, and web development. Piasecki says the company is working on a new viral application similar to Elf Yourself, and hopes to market it soon.

Qonverge filled the new positions with former contract employees, bringing the total number of fulltime employees to eight.

“[Using contractors] has been a great proving ground for us and a chance to see what’s sustainable for us,” Piasecki says. “Clients have been working with the contractors and can continue to work with them as full-time employees. We’ve developed a good team and we want to preserve that.”
