Our story began with a moment of inspiration. When our founder Mal Simons was brainstorming for a company name, his husky puppy Meghan ran into the room panting, and the perfect name was born. Today, Hot Dog Solutions is known for creating bold ideas and smarter solutions that help businesses grow. We’re excited about the future and invite you to be part of our success.
We started as humble subcontractors, but through hard work and dedication, we’ve grown into leaders of our industry. From our early days as a respected affiliate marketing agency, we’ve evolved into a full-service digital powerhouse. Whether it’s performance marketing or intricate eCommerce solutions, we’ve built a reputation for turning challenges into opportunities and big ideas into success stories.
Our success is rooted in the trust and loyalty of our clients. Some of our earliest partners are still with us after six years, and we’re proud to see those relationships thrive. This dedication was recognised in 2024 when we received a Highly Noted Performance Marketing Award for our innovative CPA by SKU model. This approach doesn’t just boost performance; it helps our clients save money too.
At Hot Dog Solutions, we believe that when our clients succeed, we succeed. That’s why everything we do—from launching pay-on-results marketing in 2021 to becoming a Shopify partner in 2022 and Shopline partner in 2024—is designed with your success in mind. We’re driven by a passion for exploring new digital possibilities and building partnerships that last.
Wherever you’re based, our team is ready to help your business grow, connect, and thrive.
