Why we built this.

We've both spent our careers in marketing. We've run paid acquisition, built conversion programs, led teams, sat in boardrooms, and watched what makes campaigns work and what makes relationships work.

Along the way, we noticed something. The things clients lit up about weren't the fancy decks or the new frameworks. They were the small things. A phone call out of the blue to check in. A report that talked about revenue, not just impressions. A strategist who answered the email instead of routing it to a queue. A partner who said "here's what I think you should do" instead of "here's what you asked for."

One client once told one of us that he'd never gotten a call from his agency just to see how things were going. Not a sales call. Not a check-in tied to a renewal. Just a call. That stuck with us.

We built daylyte around those moments. Around the kind of work that earns trust quietly, over and over, in the small things.

The name comes from a song, Daylight by Matt & Kim. Bright, optimistic, in motion. A little scrappy. Refusing to take itself too seriously while still going hard on the stuff that matters. That's the energy we wanted in the business. That's the energy we bring to the work.

Who you'll be working with.

We're parents, partners, and people who love this work.

We're two people who genuinely like what we do. We've spent careers in performance marketing, CRO, and growth strategy, and we still get excited about a well-built campaign, a clean A/B test, and a dashboard that tells a real story.

We're also parents. That shapes everything about how we run this business. We built daylyte so we could do excellent work and show up at school pickup. So we could grow this thing intentionally, on our terms, with the kind of clients we actually want to spend time with.

We're building something smaller on purpose: the best agency we can be for a small number of growth-stage companies who get what we're about.

The two of us.

Kim Fitkin, Founder & CEO of daylyte

Kim Fitkin

Founder & CEO

Kim has spent two decades in operations and performance marketing, twice as a President and COO, and landed on one conviction: how you treat people is the whole game. Take care of them first, and the results follow. She started daylyte to run PPC, CRO, and growth the way it should be done, as a real partner who's genuinely in your corner and right there to celebrate the wins with you.

She's also a mom who's all in on her kids, and she built daylyte to prove you can do work you love without missing school pickup. When she's not in an account, she's writing her first book on the inner work of leadership — mid-practice, not from the finish line.

Matt Nelson, CMO of daylyte

Matt Nelson

Co-founder & CMO

Matt taught himself paid media back when every test was run by hand — hand-picked audiences, dozens of ad variations, bids nudged one at a time. Today he lets humans set the strategy and the algorithm do the rapid testing, so every dollar of spend works harder. A whole lot of scaled accounts later, he still lights up over a Google or Meta campaign that's bringing in new customers.

He brings an MBA, a sharp eye for ROI, and a frankly unreasonable supply of dad jokes. You've been warned.

Let's see if we're a fit.
