SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.- Digital Air Strike, one of the nation’s leading automotive social media, online reputation and lead-response companies, announced today that Inc. magazine has named it as one of the Top 5000 Fastest-Growing Private Companies in the country. Based on a three-year growth rate of 313 percent, Digital Air Strike ranked #1 in revenue/#5 in growth for Arizona-based companies in the advertising and marketing category, #12 fastest-growing among all companies in Scottsdale, #20 fastest-growing among all companies in the San Jose Region and #1372 fastest-growing nationwide for all companies overall.
“We are honored to be ranked as one of the country’s fastest-growing companies,” said Alexi Venneri, Co-founder and CEO of Digital Air Strike. “Thanks to the tremendous support of our clients, we have created innovative social media solutions and lead response technology that transforms the way dealerships engage with prospects and customers.”
The 2014 Inc. 500|5000 list of fastest growing companies represents an exclusive ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies, and includes a comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy—America’s independent entrepreneurs. Companies such as Yelp, Pandora, Timberland, Dell, Domino’s Pizza, LinkedIn, Zillow, and many other well-known names gained early exposure as members of the Inc. 500|5000.
The list is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2010 to 2013. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generated revenue by March 31, 2010; and they had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent — not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies. This year’s list is the most competitive crop in the list’s history. The companies including on the Inc. 5000 list have an aggregate revenue is $211 billion, generating 505,000 jobs over the past three years. Complete results, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000.
“What surprises me, is the sheer variety of the paths our entrepreneurs take to success, thematically reflecting how our economy has evolved,” says Inc. President and Editor-In- Chief Eric Schurenberg. “This year there are far more social media and far fewer computer hardware businesses than there were, say, six years ago. But what doesn’t change is the fearsome creativity unleashed by American entrepreneurship.”
