Neutron

the
founders

Shaun and Dan had worked together on various ventures, but it wasn't until 2007 when they re-launched their company as Neutron Interactive, that they discovered what really mattered. In a candid interview CEO Dan Caffee, and President and CFO Shaun Ritchie, shared a little bit about Neutron Interactive and why it just works.

Why Neutron? "Before Neutron Interactive was created, we had a company we didn't like. We wanted to create a place where we'd actually want to come into work every day. We wanted to create a better, more modern company."

Building the Neutron Empire "Through experience and a lot of trial & error, we learned from our mistakes and combined the best aspects to create a successful company. From the beginning we tried to create an atmosphere where each employee could reach their potential. Growth is something that is expected at Neutron and all of our employees have that need to continually improve themselves which improves what we're doing as a whole."

The Key to Success "Success isn't about us; it's about hiring great people. Success is 80% people, that's where it comes from. Having the best people on the team."

Company Culture "We did research on companies we admire and wanted to emulate. The common denominator between all of those companies was that they each had a unique, but strong company culture. We realized that we could really create any successful company we wanted by hiring incredibly talented people and providing a work place where they could reach their potential."

Final Thoughts "We love the people we work with. We love being surrounded by super smart, creative people and we work hard to provide an environment they can thrive in."

Felicia Romney

Sr. Account Executive

Client Services is my passion. I love human interaction and working with different people on a daily basis. I enjoy helping my clients find solutions to problems and building life-long relationships with them.

I have worked at larger companies and I enjoy the smaller atmosphere that Neutron has to offer. I have worked here for over four years and I have an in-depth understanding of how Neutron works and what it takes for Neutron to succeed.

I'm a team player, I work hard and I believe that my success is equivalent to the success of my clients.

Scott Jensen

Graphic Designer

Working at Neutron as a designer is one of the best jobs out there, and I'm not just saying that. It's more than a 'place to work.' It's an entire culture and attitude. That attitude carries over to our design work as much as anything else. We'll look a challenge straight in the eyes and won't stop until we completely own it. A lot of emphasis is placed on pushing the envelope and thinking outside the box.

I love to be creative. As a designer, I'm given plenty of creative liberty at Neutron. The ideas and suggestions that I have from my professional experience are given just as much emphasis as anyone else's. This allows us to work closely together and create results that are far beyond anything we could do on our own. The projects push me above the normal standards. As a result, I improve and get even better at the things I do.

The work we do at Neutron is challenging and fast-paced because it brings success, and also because we like it that way.

I'm incredibly grateful to work for a business that encourages originality and resourcefulness in its employees. The atmosphere in Neutron Interactive is what separates it from the competition and has made it so successful. Without it I, nor the rest of the staff, wouldn't thrive.

I have the pleasure of being the senior copywriter here at Neutron Interactive and I absolutely love my job. Every day, I am able to take an idea and make it come alive with just a few compelling words. As a brilliant team of copywriters, we work together to develop clever copy that both engages the target audience and offers a call to action. We analyze our targets in depth to truly understand how we can reach them the most effective way possible. Of course, none of our copywriting efforts would go noticed if it weren't for the other teams within the office. Each team contributes something unique and important which makes all of our campaigns a success.

After my dreams of being the female version of Indiana Jones evaporated, I decided to turn my attention to Web Development! Now I try to save the world by staring lovingly at my iMac, designing in Photoshop, and coding away in HTML/CSS.

Neutron Interactive has given me a place where I feel happy and excited to come to work. Every day is a new experience that continually challenges me, and pushes me to create my best work. There isnt a day at the office that goes by that doesnt make me feel lucky to be apart of this great environment and organization.

Joel Cannon

Marketing Manager

Neutron Interactive has created an environment that breeds individual, financial, and professional growth and success. Encouragement and reassurance start with consistent guidance and counsel from our CEO and President who take more of a hands off approach to management, but always leave their doors open.

Of all the great people who work in the Neutron office, I have the pleasure of interacting primarily with my small but mighty team of four. I can absolutely rely on my team to accomplish any task I throw at them and my expectations for projects are always exceeded. In short, it is a privilege to be on the Neutron team and see the amazing results that come from working with an office full of talented people.
