Our Story

Built by Marketers Who Care About Results

BelBir Digital was founded by Belgin Akgul and Birol Kanmaz — a marketing and sales leader paired with a certified Salesforce developer and digital marketing strategist, both based in Fair Lawn, NJ.

We built BelBir Digital on a simple belief: every growing brand deserves a marketing partner who combines real commercial strategy with technical execution. We bring together Belgin's client-facing sales experience at brands like Mattel and Magic EdTech, and Birol's hands-on background in SEO, campaign management, and CRM platforms — all in service of helping your brand grow smarter and faster online.

Our Mission

To Make Every Client's Marketing Work Harder

We exist to give ambitious brands access to world-class digital marketing — the kind of strategic thinking and execution that was previously only available to large corporates with huge budgets.

Our Values

What Drives Everything We Do

Results-Obsessed

We measure everything and optimize relentlessly. Vanity metrics don't interest us — real business outcomes do.

Strategically Creative

We combine bold creative thinking with rigorous analytical thinking. Great ideas have to work in the real world.

Client-First

Your success is our success. We operate as an extension of your team, not just a vendor.

Always Learning

Digital marketing changes fast. We stay ahead of the curve so you don't have to.
