PITTSBURGH, PA., March 17, 2022: Inc. magazine revealed this week that, with a two-year revenue growth of 71 percent, Level Agency is No. 113 on its third annual Inc. 5000 Regionals: Northeast list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies based in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont. Born of the annual Inc. 5000 franchise, this regional list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the Northeast region economy’s most dynamic segment – its independent small businesses.
“We are grateful to Inc. for this validation of our leadership,” says Patrick Patterson, Level Agency Managing Partner and President. “This incredible recognition would not be possible without our dedicated and innovative team or our clients who have trusted us to lead the marketing charge for them year after year.”
The companies on this list show a remarkable rate of growth across all industries in the Northeast region. In 2020 alone, they added 5,010 jobs and nearly $2.7 billion to the economy. Companies based in the New York City and Boston areas had the highest growth rate overall. Level Agency was one of 18 Pennsylvania companies on the list, and the fastest-growing firm in the Pittsburgh metro.
“This year’s Inc. 5000 Regional winners represent one of the most exceptional and exciting lists of America’s off-the-charts growth companies. They’re disrupters and job creators, and all delivered an outsize impact on the economy. Remember their names and follow their lead. These are the companies you’ll be hearing about for years to come,” says Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc.
The past two years have been marked by unprecedented changes in the marketplace. The digital marketing space has seen increased scrutiny from users concerned over data use and privacy, forcing industry stalwarts like Google and Apple to rewrite the rules. While this has left some digital marketers unsure of where to turn next, Level Agency has leaned into this change and leveraged it for growth.
“Our belief that all marketing can create value, build trust, and inspire change, paired with a hypothesis-driven, curiosity-led approach to strategy, has meant we’ve been able to keep our clients ahead of marketplace changes, explains Patrick Van Gorder, Partner and Executive Vice President. “We call this philosophy Test. Learn. Grow. This recognition is further evidence that the formula works.”
