Loudr Adds 2 Directors
Emily Highet Morgan and Emily Bennett have joined the agency’s team.

Emily Highet Morgan is the company’s new director of media, and Emily Bennett is its new director of finance and human resources.
“We’re ecstatic to welcome Emily Highet Morgan and Emily Bennett, who are both incredibly accomplished in their fields,” said Loudr CEO Jackie Brooks.
“This team of leaders is uniquely positioned to help Loudr grow and to deliver results to every one of our clients.”
Morgan has 13 years of experience working in media. Most recently, she was a video strategist at Google, where she focused on growing the YouTube platform.
She takes a holistic approach to media, Loudr said, and is excited to work with the growing media team to execute on strategies focused on specific client goals.
The rebrand that led to Loudr included an expansion of company offerings to deliver a “more impactful client experience than ever before,” it said.
Morgan said she is excited about Loudr’s full-service nature.
“I’ve been in roles where you just control one piece of the narrative, but full-service allows us to have a more cohesive strategy. It means clients have access to lots of experts under one roof who see all aspects of their business,” she said.
Loudr’s full-service offerings list includes SEO management, custom web development, video production, paid digital advertising, design, and more.
Morgan’s expertise will strengthen the media department and add value for clients, the company said, enhancing the team’s ability to hone in on unique client goals and deliver results.
“I look forward to bringing new ideas, new ways of thinking about business challenges and new platforms and technologies to the conversation,” said Morgan.
Emily Bennett, the agency’s new director of finance and human resources, has worked in operations for 20 years, developing internal frameworks for large and small companies.
“We build and maintain the necessary structure to allow the delivery team to focus on providing top-of-the-line creativity and service to our clients,” said Bennett.
Bennett likened building a successful business to building a house.
“My job is to help the team methodically build a solid foundation for what will be a free-standing home. This allows our creative teammates to focus energy on external works of art and delivering at the highest level,” she said.
Bennett added, “[The team at Loudr is] versatile, hungry, and focused on delivering the highest level of quality. The culture is alive and growth-minded, encouraging people to be collaborative, open, and excited. So many wonderful things to come.”
