September 25th, 2025 by
Search Influence is proud to announce that New Orleans CityBusiness has named us one of the 2025 In the Lead: Best Women-Owned Businesses honorees.
The special section, profiling recognized companies, will appear in the September 19, 2025, issue of New Orleans CityBusiness.
This honor comes alongside our recognition as an honoree in the 2025 CityBusiness Empowering Women Award and adds to our ongoing distinction of being named five times to the publication’s Best Places to Work list.
Together, these awards highlight our growth as a digital marketing agency and our commitment to creating a workplace where women lead, innovate, and thrive.
What the Award Represents
CityBusiness selects honorees based on business performance, innovation, workplace culture, and community impact.
To qualify, companies must be owned in whole or majority by women and based in the Greater New Orleans area. Honorees are chosen for achievements such as:
- Demonstrating strong growth in revenue or employees
- Trailblazing in industries traditionally dominated by male-owned firms
- Building a workplace that supports employees with programs that foster morale and growth
- Showing consistent community engagement and mentorship
At Search Influence, these values align directly with our mission. 75% of our leadership and 79% of our team are women, and our culture emphasizes mentorship, inclusion, and opportunity.
A Women-Owned Digital Marketing Agency Making an Impact
From our beginnings in a spare bedroom to becoming a nationally recognized digital marketing agency, our growth has always been rooted in people. Being a women-owned company means leading with empathy and strength while ensuring every team member has the tools to succeed. Flexible schedules, paid parental leave, and clear paths for professional development are just a few ways we support our team.
We also give back by hosting YouthForce interns each year, helping mentor the next generation of women interested in business, technology, and marketing.
