Weaver, who has been with Thunderly for four years, brings a strong background in franchise and multi-location marketing, specializing in lead generation, ad optimization, and scalable digital campaigns. He will direct Thunderly’s paid media strategy, analytics, and performance efforts across its franchise client base.
“Paid media is one of the most powerful drivers of franchise growth and Jason has been instrumental in building Thunderly’s paid media division into one of the premier lead-generation teams in franchising,” said Scott White, CEO of Thunderly. “His data-driven mindset and deep franchise experience make him the ideal leader to continue elevating our capabilities and delivering measurable results for our clients.”
