For the 2nd Straight Year, AdShark Marketing Appears on the Inc. 5000 List

Inc. magazine today revealed that AdShark Marketing has once again earned a spot on the Inc. 5000, ranking #2,007 out of 5,000. The number 2,007 holds a special place in Inc.’s history, as it’s also the year that they originally launched their list.

Since ‘07, Inc. Magazine has released a list of the 5,000 fastest-growing private companies in the U.S. In 2020, we made our debut on this list and we’re pleased to once again be recognized for our growth. Placement on the list is determined by three-year revenue growth rate. Over the past three years, AdShark has grown in revenue by 220%, earning us the #2007 spot nationally and #3 out of 9 companies who were recognized from our home state of North Dakota.

At AdShark, we’ve always operated under the mantra that we grow when our clients grow. Helping businesses recognize opportunities for their own revenue growth through digital channels has correlated to a rise in our revenue & team size. For us, the greatest part of being on this list is the acknowledgment that we have helped our clients grow too. Over the eight years that we’ve been in operation, AdShark has been able to help over 170 small- to medium-sized businesses compete on a national level; and we’re just getting started!

“Being recognized for the second year in a row on the Inc. 5000 list is a big achievement,” says Rick Berg, CEO of AdShark. “It’s a testament to our team’s dedication to going above and beyond in helping businesses grow.”
