Fount Holland was Team Thrive’s first client and now serves as a partner in the company.
As Oklahoma’s preeminent political strategist, Fount has worked with more than 100 officeholders at the local, statewide and federal level. He also represents clients across the United States who call on him for his expertise in political direct mail.
In 2022, Fount oversaw the elections of U.S. Senator Markwayne Mullin, Okla. Attorney General Gentner Drummond, Okla. Corporation Commissioner Kim David, Okla. State Labor Commissioner Leslie Osborn, Okla. House Speaker Charles McCall, and the elections and re-elections of countless state representatives and senators.
Fount’s past clients include Okla. Corporation Commissioner Todd Hiett, U.S. Rep. Bob Latta, Okla. State Treasurer Ken Miller, Tulsa Mayor Dewey Bartlett and T.W. Shannon, Oklahoma’s youngest and first African-American Speaker of the House.
In 2020, his work on the election of Bob Ed Culver to the state House was hailed by the Associated Press as making rural Democrats an “extinct species” in Oklahoma.
Fount is widely credited with the Republican takeover of the Oklahoma House of Representatives in 2004, ending an 83-year drought. Six years later, he played a vital role in Republicans winning a majority in the Oklahoma Senate for the first time in state history.
In 1997, Fount started his first political consulting company in Muskogee, Okla., after working as communications director for then-U.S. Congressman (and former U.S. Senator) Tom Coburn, whose campaigns he had helped guide to victory.
Fount’s passion for winning extends to fitness, having shed nearly 150 pounds through martial arts, boxing and other exercise and diet regimens. He is a devoted father and husband who enjoys drinking coffee and hanging out with his dachshund, whom he adopted from a rescue shelter with his wife, Vicky, and son, Elliot.
A graduate of the University of Oklahoma, Fount was a journalist with the Tulsa World for almost six years early in his career. He was raised in Tahlequah, Okla.
