Our Story

We didn't start as an agency. We started as founders.

Ecom Growers was built by the same people who built BombTech Golf — a DTC golf brand founded in a basement, grown to 7 figures over 10 years, and successfully exited. Everything we do for our clients is something we did for ourselves first.

The Brand We Built

BombTech Golf

Founded in a basement in 2012, BombTech Golf grew into a 7-figure DTC brand over 10 years before a successful exit in 2022. Every email, SMS, and retention strategy we use for our clients was battle-tested on this brand first.

The Journey

How Ecom Growers came to be

2012

BombTech Golf is Born

Tyler 'Sully' Sullivan founds BombTech Golf from his basement. Competing in long-drive contests, he designs a better club with help from local engineering students — with zero expectations and pure passion for golf.

2013

Facebook Ads & Email Ignite Growth

With early Facebook ads returning $6 for every $1 spent and a growing email list, BombTech begins to take off. Sully starts treating email as a real conversation — asking customers what to launch, getting real answers, and selling through every drop.

2016

Ecom Growers is Founded

Sully starts Ecom Growers alongside his first BombTech employee, Chris Petitt, to help other DTC brands do exactly what BombTech did — build authentic relationships through email and SMS that drive real revenue.

2020

Scaling to 7 Figures

BombTech Golf becomes a multi-million dollar brand. Every email launch consistently generates six figures. The playbook is proven: plain text, conversational, customer-first — no gimmicks, no overly designed newsletters.

2022

BombTech Exits. Ecom Growers Grows.

After 10 years, Sully successfully exits BombTech Golf. With the exit complete, Ecom Growers becomes the full focus — bringing 10 years of hard-won DTC operator experience to every client engagement.

Today

The Operator-Owned Agency

Ecom Growers works with 6, 7 & 8 figure ecommerce brands, applying the same strategies that built and exited BombTech. No theory. No guesswork. Just proven retention playbooks tested on our own money first.

The People Behind It

Real operators. Real experience.

Christopher Petitt

Christopher Petitt

Co-Founder & Head of Retention

The first hire at BombTech Golf, Chris ran email and SMS for the brand through its most explosive growth years. He helped build the retention engine from the ground up and co-founded Ecom Growers to scale those systems for brands beyond BombTech.

Co-Founder & CEO

Founded BombTech Golf in 2012, scaled it to a 7-figure DTC brand over 10 years, and exited in 2022. Along the way, he pioneered a conversational email approach that turned the list into BombTech's most valuable asset. Now brings that same playbook to Ecom Growers clients.

What We Believe

The principles that drive everything we do

Operators First

We've run a real ecom brand — dealt with suppliers, cashflow crunches, seasonality, and fulfillment chaos. That context shapes every strategy we build.

Test on Our Own Dime

Every tactic we bring to a client was battle-tested on BombTech first. We never ask clients to be our guinea pigs.

Conversational, Not Corporate

Customers are people. We write emails like you're talking to one person, not blasting a list. Authentic beats polished every time.

Revenue Over Vanity

Open rates and click rates are nice. But we optimize for revenue, LTV, and repeat purchase — the numbers that actually matter to your bottom line.

Long-Term Thinking

We built BombTech over 10 years. We don't chase quick wins at the expense of customer trust. Retention is a long game and we play it that way.

Radical Transparency

You'll always know what we're doing, why we're doing it, and what it returned. No black boxes, no agency smoke and mirrors.
