Johan Hedin – CEO & Founder of Marketing Ignite
Johan Hedin is the CEO and Founder of Marketing Ignite Co. Ltd., a pioneer in the field of digital marketing with over two decades of experience. Since founding the company in 1999, Johan has helped global brands such as Thai Airways, Herbalife, Mercedes, Volvo, and hundreds of SMEs increase their revenue through ROI-driven digital marketing strategies.
A Visionary in Digital Marketing
Johan’s journey in digital marketing began in 1998 while studying at Hawaii Pacific University, where he earned his BBA and MBA in marketing. It was during this time that he recognized the potential of digital marketing to help businesses reach global audiences quickly and efficiently. While still in school, he began building websites and practicing SEO, competing with the early search engines like Altavista, Webcrawler, Excite, and Ask Jeeves.
With a passion for performance marketing, Johan later gained invaluable experience working for ValueClick/Commission Junction, the world’s largest affiliate marketing company at the time. There, he managed online marketing programs for major brands such as eBay, sharpening his expertise in digital advertising, lead generation, and conversion optimization.
The Birth of Marketing Ignite
Driven by his entrepreneurial spirit, Johan took the leap to launch Marketing Ignite Co. Ltd., which he later expanded to Bangkok, Thailand (2004), and Sweden (2018). The company has since grown into a trusted digital marketing agency, providing SEO, Google Ads, social media advertising, web copywriting, explainer video production, and conversion optimization strategies to clients across North America, Europe, and Southeast Asia.
Johan has also spearheaded the development of Lead-IQ, an intelligent lead-tracking, marketing, and sales automation platform that helps businesses maximize their marketing ROI through advanced data analysis and automation.
A Results-Driven Approach
At Marketing Ignite, Johan’s mission is simple: help businesses scale through measurable, data-driven strategies. His team focuses on:
✔ SEO & Content Marketing – Improving search rankings and driving organic traffic.
✔ Google Ads & PPC – Optimizing ad spend for maximum ROI.
✔ Social Media Advertising – Running high-impact campaigns across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
✔ Conversion Optimization – Designing websites and sales funnels that turn traffic into revenue.
Unlike many agencies that prioritize volume, Johan believes in quality over quantity, ensuring that every project is tailored for long-term success. Marketing Ignite only takes on projects where significant results can be achieved, maintaining transparency, trust, and high performance as core values.
Committed to Digital Marketing Excellence
Beyond running a successful agency, Johan has also developed SEO training courses, helping individuals and businesses master the art of digital marketing. His client-centric approach and commitment to delivering high-quality results have earned him the trust of global brands and SMEs alike.
With a deep understanding of digital trends and a passion for helping businesses grow, Johan continues to lead Marketing Ignite as a top-tier digital marketing agency, setting new benchmarks in SEO, paid advertising, and lead generation.
