CEDAR KNOLLS, N.J., Aug. 20, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Marketsmith, Inc. dominates the 40 under 40 awards category with two recent wins.

General Manager and EVP, Client Services Carina Pologruto has made the 2015 NJBIZ Forty Under 40 list, which honors young men and women under the age of 40 who make headlines in their field, share a commitment to business growth, professional excellence and the community, and possess significant authority for decision making within a company or organization.

Pologruto, who was also a 40 Under 40 winner for DM News in 20014, has more than met all of the above criteria over the course of her 9 years at the leading data-driven direct marketing strategy and analytics shop where she oversees marketing services, client services, analytics and media teams to drive continuous growth for clients.

Director of Analytics, Donald Gallant was named a winner of this year's DM News 40 Under 40 awards which honors young marketers who have helped significantly grow their companies; wowed their clients with creative or strategic plans; and influenced the industry in numerous ways—from rethinking data-driven marketing strategies, to advancing measurement, to guiding their company and clients on mastering new technologies.

Said Marketsmith President Jill Draper, "One of the things that keeps us at the forefront of innovation and primed to break down barriers is our passion for discovering and nurturing top young talent and giving them an extraordinary opportunity to make a real difference beyond what they'll experience anywhere else. Carina and Donald are just two examples of this. We have many more. We thrive on great young minds and are always on the lookout for the best, brightest and bravest."
