Atlanta-based Trio Media Group (http://triomediagroup.com/), a full-service interactive, public relations and marketing firm, has been recognized by the University of Georgia’s Alumni Association as a member of the 2012 Bulldog 100, which honors the fastest growing businesses owned and/or operated by UGA alumnus. The firm was named the 27th fastest growing business at the Bulldog 100 award ceremony. Trio Media Group’s co-founders, Denise Evans Elsbree and Ron Slotin, are both alumni of the University of Georgia and met while working on The Red & Black newspaper staff.
“It is truly an honor to be recognized among many distinguished companies by our alma mater,” said Denise Evans Elsbree, chief executive of Trio Media Group. “The education and experience gained from my time at the Grady College of Journalism was truly a launch point for my career in building successful companies.”
“Who would have thought meeting at The Red & Black student newspaper would one day lead to winning this award?” said Ron Slotin, co-founder and principal at Trio Media Group. “UGA played an instrumental part in where our business is today.”
“Most of our business focuses on new media now. We work in the digital content arena, creating innovative websites, video platforms and interactive environments on mobile and the web. Trio Media Group is a leader in this competitive industry. Our goal is to make our clients successful. That is what propels our growth and our success,” said Evans Elsbree. “This award recognizes that we have created a formula that works. The staff at Trio is talented and ready to break more records this year.”
Companies are ranked by a three-year compounded annual growth rate of revenues and were required to meet the following criteria: companies must have been in business for at least five years; have revenues of at least $100,000 in the 2008 calendar year; a UGA alumnus must either own at least 50 percent of the company or serve as CEO, president, or managing partner; and the business must operate in a manner that is consistent with UGA’s “Pillars of the Arch” character statement. One hundred companies were selected out of 800 applicants to make up the Bulldog 100.
Trio Media Group and other Bulldog 100 recipients were honored at a special event on Saturday, Jan. 21 at the Marriott Marquis in downtown Atlanta. The event was hosted by Emmy award-winning television journalist and University of Georgia alumna, Deborah Norville.
