Mostly Serious and JMARK Strengthen Alignment with Strategic Investment for Regional Growth

Strategic Partnership Announcement



In a pivotal move to enhance digital services in the community, Tom Douglas of JMARK has become a minority investor in Mostly Serious. This investment not only signifies financial backing but also cements a collaborative relationship between two leading firms—JMARK, a premier IT services provider, and Mostly Serious, a renowned digital agency known for its excellence in AI consultancy.

A Joint Vision for AI Implementation



Earlier this year, both organizations launched the AI Quest program, which received an overwhelming response, selling out its first cohort of ten organizations almost immediately. This initiative is designed to equip local professionals with essential AI skills to boost productivity in their respective fields. Currently, they have trained thousands of individuals across more than 50 organizations, demonstrating the immediate impact of this partnership.

Our mission has always been to equip our region with the tools necessary to win in the digital world,” said Jarad Johnson, CEO of Mostly Serious. “By partnering with JMARK, we accelerate that vision and bring together top regional expertise to ensure that our community remains at the forefront of AI adoption.”

Empowering People Through Technology



Tom Douglas, CEO of JMARK, also highlighted the synergy between the two companies: “Both our firms boast a rich history of innovation and guiding clients through significant technological changes. This deepened partnership is not just about technology enhancements; it focuses on investing in our workforce and empowering them to utilize AI effectively.”

This alliance adopts a people-first approach, utilizing Mostly Serious' consulting division, Habitat Communication & Culture, which focuses on change management and leadership development alongside technical implementation. The companies anticipate that this strategy will accelerate technology adoption and inspire businesses to innovate through the various changes ahead.

Fostering Human Potential Beyond Technology



“Our collaboration represents more than just advancements in technology; it seeks to enhance human capability,” mentioned Spencer Harris, PhD and President of Mostly Serious. “This partnership melds our expertise in creating top-tier websites and delivering outstanding organizational development services with JMARK’s extensive experience in IT services. As a result, clients will have access to almost any expertise they require.”
