We help brands find their growth engine.

Thunderous was founded by Stephen Hall, a digital marketing professional with over 13 years of experience in paid search strategy, campaign management, and customer acquisition.

Steve holds a BS in Hotel Administration from Cornell University and an MBA in Strategic Management from Case Western Reserve University's Weatherhead School of Management. Before launching Thunderous, he led customer acquisition strategy at One Click Ventures in Greenwood, Indiana — managing paid search marketing, SEO, and PR-related marketing activities across the company's eCommerce portfolio.

He's also co-founder of Tinker Coffee Co., a specialty coffee roasting company in Indianapolis that was named "Best Coffee in Indiana" by Food & Wine Magazine and earned a spot on the Inc. 5000 list. Under his leadership, Tinker has grown from a small startup to a multi-location operation with five cafes, two airport locations, wholesale distribution, and e-commerce — including expansion into 258 Walmart stores across the Midwest.

That dual perspective — operator and marketer — is what sets Thunderous apart. Steve doesn't just run campaigns. He understands the business behind them: the margins, the growth levers, and what it actually takes to turn ad spend into sustainable revenue.
