The Bloomington, Minnesota-based B2B sales and marketing firm has built its reputation by focusing on people first, creating a culture of leadership, mentorship, and long-term development that sets it apart from traditional sales agencies.
Von Oben Solutions began by working with small, local brands, offering face-to-face customer acquisition and direct-based marketing strategies.

Fieldwork follows, where team members connect directly with customers, representing clients with professionalism and purpose. Throughout the day, the focus remains on both performance and personal growth, with leaders coaching their teams to refine their skills and build the confidence they need to advance.
This emphasis on development has become a powerful recruitment tool. Talented professionals are drawn to Von Oben Solutions not only for the opportunity to work with high-profile clients but also for the chance to grow quickly within a supportive and dynamic environment.

Leaders at Von Oben Solutions credit this dual focus balancing business goals with team development as the key driver behind their sustained growth.
The future looks bright for Von Oben Solutions. The firm is actively planning to open additional branches and enter new markets, creating opportunities for both clients and employees. At the same time, the company is deepening its partnerships with charitable organizations, proving that success in B2B sales can align with a greater purpose.
Von Oben Solutions sees its growth as an opportunity to raise the standard for what a sales and marketing firm can be.

Exclusive: Embedded tax startup April raises $38M

April, an embedded tax platform, has raised $38 million in a Series B round led by QED Investors, founder Ben Borodach tells Axios exclusively. Why it matters: Embedding tax tools directly into financial apps can improve financial decision-making and boost customer retention. Zoom in: Nyca Partners and Team8 also participated in the Series B round, bringing the total funding April has raised to date to $78 million. How it works: Fintech apps and financial institutions use April's APIs to integrate tax filing and planning directly into their platforms, enabling year-round, real-time tax management. April operates on a SaaS-based model, offering flat-rate pricing to fintech partners, who can choose to mark up services for their end customers. "Our vision is to embed tax in every financial decision," Borodach says. "Taxes should be happening where you're managing your money. They should be happening in real time, and they should be personalized to you." Context: New York-based April operates in a market dominated by legacy tax-preparation giants like Intuit, H&R Block, Thomson Reuters, and Wolters Kluwer. But it recently became the first new company in 15 years to achieve national e-file coverage in all 50 states, Borodach says. The company has also launched a series of new products over the past year, including pro-assisted and pro-led tax filing, quarterly estimate tools for small business owners, and paycheck withholding optimizers. As a result, it is seeing increased demand from wealth management platforms, including integrations with digital advisers catering to mass-affluent clients and an upcoming partnership with a trillion-dollar asset manager. By the numbers: April claims it can reduce the time it takes to prepare and file taxes from the IRS' reported 13‑hour average down to just 22 minutes. The company processed hundreds of thousands of returns through partnerships with over 50 fintech apps and financial institutions this past tax season. It has seen its business grow three times year-to-date and more than seven times over the past 12 months, Borodach says. What's next: The company is preparing to launch advanced tax planning tools around capital gains, retirement planning, and stock transactions.

The Bay Area suburbs where renters are taking over the market

For decades, the path from renter to homeowner in America looked like this: You rent in a big city when you're just starting out, then once you've settled into your career and personal life, you buy a house in the suburbs. But high home prices combined with 30-year mortgage rates stubbornly stuck in the sixes have kept home ownership out of reach for many for the past few years, especially in the Bay Area. A new study from Point2Homes shows that renter households now outnumber homeowners in more than 200 metropolitan suburbs nationwide. Point2Homes provided the Chronicle with data on the share of renters in the smaller cities around the San Francisco, Oakland and Fremont metropolitan area (the data excludes San Jose and most of the South Bay, which are considered a separate metro). In 24 of the 54 cities analyzed, the percentage of the population that rents is rising. In seven of them, renters now represent larger shares of the population than homeowners. The trend is accelerating at an even faster rate on the East Coast, said Doug Ressler, the manager of business intelligence for data acquisition firm Yardi Matrix, who worked on the data cited in the Points2Homes study. Both companies are owned by Santa Barbara-based real estate software company Yardi Systems. In 15 metropolitan areas, suburban cities transitioned from majority-owner to majority-renter between 2018 and 2023; in another 15, the number of renter households more than doubled. In the Dallas, Minneapolis, Boston, Tampa and Baltimore areas, the suburbs gained renters faster than the big cities they surround. But that's not quite what's happening in the Bay Area. All the cities that are renter-majority as of 2023 in the San Francisco area were already that way in 2018. Of the 54 cities analyzed, the share of renters dropped in 30 of them, though in some of them not by a statistically significant amount. Taken together, the 54 cities experienced a modest net 1.9% increase in renter household growth during that period. The reason we're not seeing the same explosion in renting that some cities on the East Coast are is the same as the explanation for many of the Bay Area's problems: It's hard to build housing here. 'We don't build enough housing compared to the wealth and jobs we create,' said Matt Regan, senior vice president of policy for the Bay Area Council, a pro-housing advocacy group. The urban cores themselves 'make it ridiculously hard to build,' he said, which leads developers to look for opportunities in suburbs and exurbs. But even in smaller cities and suburban areas, Regan said, many local governments have determined that the right place to build more homes and apartments is 'somewhere else.' 'The Bay Area has been ground zero for 'not in my backyard,'' said Jeff Ostrowski, a housing market analyst for Bankrate. A combination of growth restrictions, lack of land and income growth have created what he called the 'perfect storm for an explosion of property prices.' As housing prices have risen, the age of the average first-time homebuyer in the U.S. has increased, meaning people are renting for longer. The median first-time homebuyer is now 38 years old, according to the National Association of Realtors. The years 2018 to 2023 are an interesting period for studying housing trends in America. The COVID-19 pandemic created a drastic shift: Rents rose, mortgage rates hit rock bottom, and remote work vaporized commutes. California's population declined by more than half a million people from April 2020 to July 2022, though it's bounced back since then. COVID played a dual role: Some people left because a fully remote job meant they could live somewhere more affordable. And the polarization of pandemic restrictions and vaccine policies drove some people to search for alternative political climates. Some workers who were given free rein to move to Texas or Idaho found themselves recalled by return-to-office policies. But even now, many offices in the Bay Area have only partial RTO: Office visits are down 44.6% in San Francisco this year compared with 2019, according to a study from location data analysis firm That makes the suburbs a more appealing place to live, Regan said. Only needing to drive to the office two or three days a week instead of five makes an onerous commute slightly less daunting. So there's interest in more housing in the suburbs — but challenges to build it. Regan said California's condo defect liability laws dissuade developers from building a type of housing that was traditionally a solid first rung on the property ladder. Many cities are out of space to build single-family homes. That leaves apartment buildings, which can be appealing to developers given the region's high incomes and high demand, but often face planning and permitting issues and anti-renter sentiment from homeowners. A standout on the list of cities with a high renter share is Emeryville. The share of renters increased by 28% from 2018 to 2023, with the city adding more than 1,100 renter households. Cities that have seen more renter growth tend to have certain things in common, said Ressler of Point2Homes. They're usually situated close to transit; have social amenities such as parks, community centers and museums; have less expensive land compared with the urban areas; and have local governments that are amenable to housing development. Regan said Emeryville's government has embraced housing growth alongside job growth from companies such as Pixar and commercial growth from major retailers including IKEA. Emeryville has 'been willing to accept that with economic growth comes a demand for housing, and they have built a commensurate amount of new housing units to accommodate their economic growth,' Regan said. 'Most cities in our region are happy to take the jobs and then increase their tax base, but have traditionally not been willing to build the housing.'
