DAVID GRISSOM

Co-Founder & Chief of Web Design

David Grissom is a distinguished United States Naval Aircrewman veteran, having served for six years in pivotal roles across the globe, from the warm Pacific waters of Southeast Asia to the Arctic expanses of Northern Europe. Upon concluding his naval duties with an honorable discharge, David's entrepreneurial spirit guided him to establish Mammoth Dump, a junk removal and dumpster rental service based in Merced, CA.


While David's interpersonal skills were an undeniable asset, he identified a significant opportunity to amplify his business through enhanced online presence. Committed to this vision, David immersed himself in mastering web development, SEO, and digital marketing. This investment soon bore fruit, transforming Mammoth Dump into a dominant player in its sector,  within just a year.


David's success caught the attention of his longtime friend and fellow veteran, Jack Reed. Recognizing the potential of merging their collective expertise, the duo co-founded MAGNATE – a specialized web development, SEO, and automation company tailored for blue-collar professionals nationwide.


David's overarching mission at MAGNATE is clea
r: to transcend the conventional role of a web developer and emerge as a genuine value creator for blue-collar industries. He aspires to set new standards in offering top-tier web development, SEO, and automation solutions, revolutionizing the industry and solidifying MAGNATE's role as a trusted partner for blue-collar businesses everywhere.



JACK REED

Co-Founder & Chief of Content Writing

Enter the world of Jack Reed: a proud United States Navy veteran, defined by his quick wit, unmistakable charisma, and an inherent knack for forging real connections. For six notable years, Jack served as an Electronic Warfare Operator, navigating vast stretches of the world's waters, proficiently detecting enemy vessels and playing a pivotal role in ground missions in the South Pacific.


After wrapping up his commendable naval service, Jack’s compass pointed him towards the idyllic Key West, Florida. Initially, the aim was to dive deep into the realm of business. But, as life would have it, Jack found himself at the helm of Centergy Studios. Here, his undeniable charm combined with his professional mettle, creating a lasting impact in the video production and project management sectors.


It was a single, destiny-altering phone call to David Grissom, his close confidant for over a decade, that charted out a new course for them both. With a fusion of their dreams and trust, MAGNATE was born. Designed with a vision to offer unmatched services in web development, SEO, and automation, MAGNATE became their beacon for empowering blue-collar professionals.


But what's the MAGNATE edge? It's Jack’s genuine touch. Beyond his impressive skill set, it's his authentic, relatable approach that resonates with clients. As MAGNATE's Chief of Copywriting, Jack ensures that every project isn’t just about high-end results; it's about understanding the heart of a blue-collar business. His dream for MAGNATE is simple but ambitious: to be the first name blue-collar professionals think of when they need web and digital services that truly understand and elevate their work.
