The core of ParaCore

Our work may be digital, but it’s the real people behind the scenes that make all the difference. Their curiosity and creativity have propelled us from a one-man development shop to a top-notch digital marketing team in just a few years.

The people who make everything possible

    Adam Arkfeld

    President & Founder

    “And when you want something, all the world conspires in helping you achieve it.”

    I was on the keto diet for a minute so I order a double steak bowl, no rice, light pinto beans (now, not when on keto!), fajitas, cheese, guacamole, all 3 salsas, and no sour cream (sick!). Fills you up but doesn’t feel like a brick in your stomach.

    Agh! La Croix or Cold Brew!? I’d go with La Croix (coconut flavor) because I drink an average of 3 a day. I can grab cold brew in the morning on the way in, but La Croix is an absolute staple for me in the afternoon.

    Get up super early, like 4:00 am. Meditate, journal, do something I want to focus on for work, go to hot yoga, take the family to an activity in the morning, grab lunch on a patio, read while the kids are napping, go out to dinner, then go to bed before 10.

    I used to be a pretty big rap fan. I’ve been to 5 Lil Wayne concerts and they were all amazing and horrible at the same time. I think the love somehow stems from my jazz band roots in high school.

    No burrito for me as I love a bowl with chicken, pinto beans, corn salsa and lettuce!

    Coca-Cola, it's my vice!

    Go for a hike with my wife, hit up the movies and then dinner at Nello's.

    I played in several hard rock bands until I was 30. We toured the west coast and played at most of Tempe's old clubs.

    Without the burrito! ;) Always shredded lettuce on the bottom of my bowl, it’s critical, along with lots and lots of green tabasco!

    Coconut La Croix! 100%

    A little retail therapy, I can literally shop for hours and hours... and come back a better person!

    “Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.”

    Burrito bowl*
    Shredded lettuce on the bottom. Double brown rice. Black beans. Double veggies. Double meat (chicken or steak depending on what looks fresher) but I wait until Chipotle employee puts first spoon of meat into bowl before stating that I want double meat, this typically results in getting more meat overall. Pico de gallo. Corn. Cheese. Guacamole. Salad dressing on the side is a must.

    Cold brew coffee

    Take a private jet to Barcelona, spend the whole day on the beach and eat all the tapas in sight. Take a siesta at some point just to say I did.

    I played on the varsity chess team!

    I’m all about the low-carb lifestyle, so I order my Chipotle burrito as a salad! In my salad I get lettuce, no black beans or cilantro rice, grilled veggies, chicken, medium salsa, and guacamole!

    Endless Starbucks Matcha Green Tea Lattes with coconut milk!

    I’d take a private jet to Mammoth to go snowboarding for the day!

    I would spend the entire day at the beach with my friends and drink piña coladas.

    I currently have about 20 houseplants, and I am hoping to keep adding more.

  • We have been working with ParaCore for just over 6 months. There are 4 things that really stand out with this organization responsiveness, communication, openness, and expertise. We came to them with several challenges and they really stepped up in a big way. They have always been available and provided regular updates. They are always very open about what they are seeing and what is happening. They are definitely experts in the paid search areas. They have no problem sharing exactly what they are doing. We are looking forward to a long term partnership.
