More Recognition Bestowed Upon OLSON for its Continued Growth
Olson announces today it was once again recognized by the Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal as one of the fastest growing private companies in the Twin Cities metro area. This award comes on the heels of a similar recognition by Inc. magazine, which named Olson to its Inc. 5000 list.
This is the second consecutive year Olson earned a spot on the Fast 50 list. Olson ranked ninth this year, up from 31st in 2007. Companies are ranked by three-year cumulative growth. From 2005 to 2007, Olson's revenue jumped from $15.9 million to $44.2 million - an increase of 176.17 percent.
"We've been fortunate, but we've also worked hard to achieve such incredible and sustained growth over the years," said agency CEO John Olson. "Our brand community building philosophy and our clients' success in the marketplace continue to fuel our organic growth."
Fast 50 honorees were revealed during an awards ceremony on October 23, 2008 at Windows on Minnesota, and published in the October 24 issue of the Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal. To be eligible for Fast 50, companies must be independently owned and privately held, headquartered in the Twin Cities metro area, experience year-over-year revenue growth for each of the past three fiscal years, and have revenue of at least $1 million in the first of the three most recent fiscal years.
