The Lineup & The Launchpad 

Welcome to The Lineup & The Launchpad page, your official cheat sheet for figuring out which brilliant human can help you with… whatever wonderfully chaotic thing you're working on.

Need Sales Collateral? Reporting? A miracle? Don't worry, we've got a person for that.

Think of this page as the internal version of a superhero lineup: Marketing makes the magic, Ops makes it possible, & together they prevent at least six small crises before lunch. So browse freely, save your sanity, & reach out to the right caped crusader when you need a hand.

Quick note on ordering: All non-creative orders now go through the CMG Digital Launchpad — your one-stop shop for getting things moving. Need creative? That process hasn't changed — you'll still order through Current or Pipeline like you always have.

The Sales Acceleration team is the full-service support arm for the local sales organization. The group exists to equip sellers with everything they need to win and retain business—from live call support and pre-call coaching to polished collateral, structured training, and market-facing events. It operates through two sub-groups: Sales Acceleration, which handles day-to-day seller support and materials, and Seminars, which manages the end-to-end creative and promotional pipeline for local market events. Together, they ensure reps never walk into a pitch unprepared and markets have a turnkey path to hosting client-facing seminars that fill seats.

Systems Operations Support

System Operations Support keeps the machinery running. This group handles everything related to owned-and-operated digital inventory, ad delivery, revenue reconciliation, order management, and cross-system troubleshooting. They are the team you call when a campaign is not delivering correctly, when Wide Orbit numbers do not match expectations, when a HubSpot deal needs setup help, or when something is just broken and you are not sure which system is at fault. If the other groups build strategy and tell the story, Sys Ops makes sure the plumbing work.
