Stitch, a marketing technology consultancy that offers comprehensive services around the Braze customer engagement platform, announced the formal launch of TopStitch, an intensive training program designed to develop early-career talent into the next generation of Braze consultants.

June 12th, 2024 (Indianapolis) — Stitch, a marketing technology consultancy focused on helping marketers drive customer engagement success with Braze, formally launched their intensive internal training program, TopStitch, to develop early-career talent into the next generation of Braze consultants.

‍

Founded in 2022, Stitch officially launched its partnership with Braze in May 2023, offering comprehensive services around Braze and its integration partners, such as Twilio Segment and Snowflake. Since announcing their partnership, Stitch has achieved Orbit status as a Braze partner—the highest attainable tier of partnership within the Braze partner ecosystem. 

‍

In June 2024, Stitch welcomed the first cohort of its early-career talent program, TopStitch. TopStitch is a two-month, intensive training program designed to develop the soft skills critical to building a successful consulting career and provide deep, hands-on experience within the Braze platform. Graduates of the TopStitch program are expected to complete the program with at least three Braze certifications each and will continue their careers as full-time, salaried employees of Stitch.

‍

“We pride ourselves on having deep expertise within Braze and across the martech landscape, and we continue to attract talent that brings decades of experience to the table prior to their roles at Stitch,” said Stephen Rosenfeld, vice president of architecture at Stitch. “We are excited to be able to pool together the experiences of the team to help develop the next generation of consultants and provide high-potential, early-career talent the launching pad to build an exciting career working with world-class marketers at top brands to build and execute successful marketing programs with Braze.”

‍

Stitch primarily works with marketing and customer engagement teams at well-known brands across the media and entertainment, quick-service restaurants (QSR), retail and e-commerce, financial services, travel, and gaming industries.

‍

“We couldn’t be more excited for what the launch of TopStitch means for our team, for the Braze partner ecosystem, and most importantly: for our customers,” Michael Burton, chief executive officer at Stitch shared. “Having a dedicated early-career training program for Braze consultants means that we’re not only helping to bring awareness to the exciting opportunities that come with learning Braze as a platform, but it also gives us the ability to meaningfully scale so that we can continue to move fast, offer diverse perspectives, and execute high-volume marketing programs for our customers. Our G2 reviews consistently call out the caliber of our team as something that sets Stitch apart, and when we bring more people into the fold and give them meaningful opportunities to learn the Stitch ways of being exceptional consultants, it just means we’re multiplying the talent we have here at Stitch. It’s exciting, and one of the most fulfilling parts of growing a professional services company.”

‍

“As a highly specialized marketing technology consultancy, having strong strategies in place to attract and grow top talent is one of the most critical components of our success,” said Elisa Sanders, head of talent at Stitch. “TopStitch is one very important piece of the puzzle,  enabling us to go deep with early-career talent to offer focused training on the skills that will make them successful at Stitch. We are excited to give our TopStitch participants the opportunity to build their careers with us and do exciting, fun, and challenging work for our clients across the Braze platform.”

‍

At the time of its launch, the TopStitch program is anticipated to be an annual program, welcoming a new cohort each summer. The Stitch team plans to reevaluate adding additional cohorts throughout the year.
