It has been just over a year since Degordian began restructuring its organization, transitioning one by one, each of its five departments into specialized agencies. Today, Degordian introduces Ahelon – a digital growth agency specializing in enhancing business growth for its clients.
Ahelon evolved from Performance Marketing, one of Degordian’s oldest departments, boasting 13 years of experience working with clients worldwide, from startups to unicorns. At its core, the agency focuses on growing and developing clients’ businesses by building long-term, partnership-based relationships.
How Does Ahelon Drive Business Growth?
Digital growth is a unique field where the success of the agency largely depends on a strong, long-term relationship with the client. Ahelon takes a deep dive into a business’s operations to solve advanced challenges, either through direct implementation or consulting – all tailored to the client’s specific needs and goals.
Over time, Ahelon evolved into this model, learning from experience that many clients still struggle with digital marketing, especially when tasked with taking their business to the next level.
“We recognized a market need and, with that in mind, launched Ahelon to provide agency services where clients engage us to solve their problems, as well as consulting services, where we assist executives, owners, or in-house teams in addressing advanced business challenges,” explained Hrvoje Pilić, Ahelon’s CEO.
Ideally, Ahelon’s clients become long-term partners, ensuring optimal results, which, in the simplest terms, mean increased revenue.
To achieve this, Ahelon has developed its own approach to addressing clients’ business needs. This method combines various strategies for each phase of growth marketing to ensure acquisition, conversion, and retention phases grow individually and collectively contribute to business growth through a multiplier effect.
A Comprehensive Range of Services
This framework is applied through a portfolio of services, including growth strategy development, SEO, web analytics and optimization, marketing automation, digital outreach, digital advertising, and content marketing.
These services are offered through three main solutions for which Ahelon is specialized: B2B Marketing, Lead Generation, and Full-Service Ecommerce.
For each client, Ahelon’s team of experts assesses the business’s maturity, defines objectives and needs, and recommends and implements the services that will deliver the best possible results. Dedicated specialists act as consultants, support in-house client teams, or function as a fully integrated team, offering a 100% personalized, tailor-made approach.
Commitment to Industry Development
Ahelon also invests its resources and expertise in developing and educating the industry through events such as SEO – Depends Meetup, Detangled webinars, and specialized thematic gatherings.
What Does This Mean for Degordian?
Degordian continues to operate as an umbrella brand for its specialized agencies, which now include Builtt (a development agency), Enstring (an HR-first agency), Boiler (a 360° creative agency), and as of today, Ahelon (a digital growth agency). In 2025, the launch of the final specialized agency is anticipated.
Each department now has its own positioning, enabling easier establishment in both regional and global markets as niche experts in their respective fields. Meanwhile, Degordian retains its umbrella brand identity, ensuring that its specialized agencies maintain a digital-first approach, focus on elevating businesses, and offer a comprehensive 360° service through collaboration among sub-brands.
The Story Behind the Ahelon Brand
The name Ahelon draws inspiration from the Latin word “echelon,” symbolizing growth – a core goal this agency strives to achieve for its clients.
By combining consulting services with the implementation of digital marketing activities, Ahelon positions itself as a market leader. Its team of 13 experts adopts a holistic approach to business growth and development while sharing the “always curious” mindset of the Degordian group.
At the helm is Hrvoje Pilić, formerly Performance Marketing Director and now CEO of Ahelon. With Degordian since its inception, his expertise and contributions have played a key role in the company’s growth. Over the past 13 years, Hrvoje has been instrumental in developing the portfolio of services and building the team, transitioning from simple advertising to complex solutions. Under his leadership, Ahelon has experienced all phases of business growth and has extensive experience achieving digital growth for numerous clients worldwide.
