SmartBug Media® a leading Intelligent Inbound® marketing agency that assists businesses in generating leads, increasing awareness, and building brand loyalty through inbound marketing, digital strategy, design, marketing automation, and public relations—today announced that it has been named the 16th fastest-growing private company in Orange County, California by the Orange County Business Journal (OCBJ). It’s the third time SmartBug® has been named to this list, which includes prominent companies whose annual sales grew rapidly from mid-2018 to mid-2020 during a period of economic uncertainty.
“Being named to this list for the third time is an honor and once we do not take for granted. Our recognition is the result of the 100-plus SmartBugs that commit every day to help clients exceed their revenue and growth goals,” said Ryan Malone, CEO, and founder of SmartBug Media. “It’s their work and an incredibly open and collaborative portfolio of clients that have enabled us to demonstrate the strength and resiliency of our business model during these very challenging times, and for that reason, we are grateful.”
To be considered for the list, qualified companies had to be headquartered in Orange County and have at least $1 million in revenue for the 12 months through June 2018. The list is ranked by revenue growth, as measured by sales for the 12 months through June 2018 compared to sales for the 12 months through June 2020.
This recognition follows the recent announcement that SmartBug was named to the prestigious Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in America for the fourth year in a row. Founded in 2008 as one of the country’s few fully remote marketing agencies, SmartBug already had strong remote processes and best practices in place by 2020, making it a resilient and trusted authority and advisor to other companies navigating the challenges brought on by the global pandemic.
SmartBug’s high standards for creating best-in-class client work and commitment to professional development have contributed to its rapid growth, earning it an impressive list of accolades over the years. In addition to being HubSpot’s highest-rated partner in the world, one of only 10 HubSpot Elite partners worldwide, and HubSpot’s 2018 Global Partner of the Year, SmartBug was named to HubSpot’s Partner Advisory Council (PAC) for the second year in a row. It was also named to the inaugural Adweek 100: Fastest Growing Agencies list last year and has earned 12 Comparably awards since 2018.
