Revolve Welcomes Longtime Employee Mike Bardsley as New Partner

Bedford – After 16 years working up through the agency, Mike Bardsley has become a partner and named Vice President at Revolve.

“Mike has been part of the very fabric of Revolve for many years,” says Phil Otto, founder and CEO. “I am proud to call him a close friend, a colleague, and now a business partner. He is creative, perpetually curious, and always looking for better ways to build our clients’ brands.”

“I love our team, many of my clients have become close friends, and our work fills me with pride,” says Bardsley. “I’ve enjoyed incredible experiences, personal and professional growth, and am raising a family in a wonderful part of the world. What more could you ask for from a career? I’m fortunate. And I’m excited for the future at Revolve.”

Bardsley’s experience includes two national brands who’ve been staple clients of Revolve since well before he started with the company – Kohltech Windows and TIMBER MART. He also counts Supplement King, Polaris, Halifax Regional Municipality, NSLC, Murphy Hospitality Group, Truro Cannabis and Communications Nova Scotia as key accounts.  “It’s our ability to provide value to any size business that keeps me fired up. Our region relies on the success of entrepreneurial businesses. Those businesses need professional marketing and relationships they can trust.”
