Direct mail expert creates fast-growing multi-million dollar company
PostcardMania wins 3rd year in a row the Fast 50 List... Tampa Bay's most sought-after business list featuring the fastest-growing privately held companies for 2008. PostcardMania CEO, Joy Gendusa, tells how she did it in an exclusive audio interview.
/Direct Marketing PR News/ - CLEARWATER, FL, July 01, 2008 - The Tampa Bay Business Journal announced yesterday its Fast 50 ranking of the fastest-growing privately-held companies in Tampa Bay. The ranking is based on percentage of annual growth over a three-year period (2005, 2006, 2007). PostcardMania CEO, Joy Gendusa, whose company is a third-time honoree, says the list has become more prestigious with the revenue verification process done by accounting firm, Kirkland, Russ, Murphy & Tapp.
Joy Gendusa, a sought-after marketing expert, bootstrapped her way to success in the spirit of true entrepreneurialism, creating PostcardMania - the fastest growing direct mail postcard marketing firm in the nation, recognized nationally by Inc Magazine. Joy began PostcardMania in 1998 with no capital injections of any kind, only a computer and a phone. Almost ten years later, Joy is still sole owner of the Clearwater, Fla. firm that boasts a revenue of nearly $19 million dollars, employs over 150 people, and weekly prints 4 million and mails 2 million postcards representing 28,000-plus customers in more than 350 industries. Gendusa's story lies in how she did it:
1) without a formal education,
2) never taking a dime of investment capital and
3) by using only direct mail to grow her company in its formative years.
The story of her success was recorded in a one-hour interview, exclusively for aspiring entrepreneurs to help them grow their own businesses and can be heard at http://www.postcardmania.com/marketing-articles/marketing-audio/interviews/
Gendusa will be at the Fast 50 awards luncheon, which is scheduled for 11:15 a.m. on July 17, 2008, at A La Carte Event Pavilion, 4050 Dana Shores Drive, Tampa.
