The Review ranks the region's fastest growing companies by size and revenue from the entire Gulf Coast of Florida, including: Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco, Manatee, Sarasota, Charlotte, Lee and Collier counties.
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.
