CHICAGO, August 11, 2026 — JumpSeat, a strategic GTM agency, ranked No. 2,836 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list of America’s fastest-growing private companies after achieving 111% revenue growth over three years.

The national recognition follows JumpSeat’s No. 115 ranking on the 2026 Inc. Regionals Midwest list, where the agency was recognized for 40% growth over two years.

“JumpSeat grew because our clients grew,” said Dan Ptak, founder and CEO of JumpSeat. “This recognition belongs to every client who trusted us with an ambitious target and every person on our team who treated that target as their own.”

Founded in Chicago in 2020, JumpSeat helps high-performing B2B revenue, sales, and marketing teams build stronger go-to-market strategies and scale them through integrated execution.

The agency combines GTM strategy, brand and creative, performance marketing, development, sales activation, and Signal Intelligence. Its multi-continent team works alongside clients to connect these capabilities through a single, integrated growth motion.

“We set out to prove that an agency could be deeply embedded, highly creative, and accountable to revenue,” Ptak said. “Making the Inc. 5000 tells us that model is not only working. It is scaling.”

JumpSeat has completed more than 850 Agile Growth Sprints across more than 50 GTM teams, with an average client relationship of more than 3.7 years.

JumpSeat’s client work has helped generate $125 million in pipeline through a single brand-launch campaign, grow a new division by more than 700% in an entrenched category, support more than $100 million in funding and M&A activity, and contribute to three successful client exits.

“The number beside our name on the Inc. 5000 matters, but the results behind it matter more,” Ptak said. “Our growth is the product of long-term relationships and meaningful outcomes for our clients. When they build pipeline, enter new markets, attract investment, or complete a successful exit, we grow alongside them.”

The recognition comes as JumpSeat expands its work in Signal Intelligence, a continuous approach to reading market movement and translating it into prioritized accounts, actionable context, and relevant conversations.
“The way B2B companies grow is changing,” Ptak said. “The best GTM teams will be signal-based and signal-backed. They will know who to target, why now, and what to say, and they will have the conviction to act before their competitors do. That is the future we are building toward.”

The Inc. 5000 ranks privately held U.S. companies according to their percentage revenue growth over a three-year period.
