The year-end champagne corks popped early at V Digital Services when the fast-growing digital marketing agency was recognized as one of the “Best Entrepreneurial Companies in America” by Entrepreneur magazine’s Entrepreneur360™ List, a premier study delivering the most comprehensive analysis of private companies in America. VDS placed No. 174 overall, putting it in the top half of the field.
“Our annual evaluation of vetted data offers a 360-degree analysis of top privately-held companies across a multitude of industries,” said Entrepreneur editor-in-chief Jason Feifer. “They’re deemed successful not only by revenue numbers, but by how well-rounded they are. The companies that make the list have pushed boundaries with their innovative ideas, fostered strong company cultures, impacted their communities for the better, and increased their brand awareness.”
A division of corporate parent Voice Media Group, VDS operates in thirteen major American cities, including the Top 25 markets where VMG publishes such award-winning digital-forward publications as Denver Westword and Miami New Times. The digital marketing agency is based in Phoenix and located in the same headquarters complex that houses VMG’s iconic Phoenix New Times.
VMG chief executive officer Scott Tobias said he was especially proud that VDS made the coveted Entrepreneur list for the second consecutive year. “Being able to repeat at this level is a real testament to our team’s ability to maintain momentum and focus in a highly competitive industry,” Tobias noted. “I couldn’t be more proud of them.”
VDS employs more than 70 analysts and account managers who specialize in helping small and large businesses achieve success in the digital space through expertise in organic SEO, paid media, social media management, web development and both programmatic and pay-per-click advertising. Its innovative strategies have produced explosive growth. In the past year alone, VDS grew jobs by 30 percent, sales revenue by 34 percent and customers by a whopping 122 percent.
The nod from Entrepreneur is only the latest bit of national recognition for VDS. In October, it was named company of the year in the Business Intelligence Group’s BIG Awards for Business. VDS won in the category for small businesses, which the BIG Awards define as companies with fewer than 100 employees. In July, VDS took home four wins in the Globee Awards, including a prestigious gold medal for having the most robust jobs growth in its category. And in May, the agency was named one of the nation’s fastest growing companies by the American Business Awards.
