Matas started as a Junior Ad Buyer at Sugatan in 2020, and despite not making it to the second phase of the application process the first time he applied, he eventually made it and went on to become one of the top Ad Buyers in the history of Sugatan.

Matas has scaled ad accounts on Facebook to astronomical heights, spending $60k/day on his own, helping numerous eCommerce businesses 10x profitably.

Today, Matas is the Chief Growth Officer at Sugatan and trains all our new Ad Buyers.

Eimantas was an Ad Buyer at Sugatan from 2020 to 2021 and was actually Matas’ mentor when he first started out.
