Plainfield Business Makes List of Fastest Growing Companies

LLT Group, Inc., a digital marketing agency, leading in the web design, development and search engine space, has made No. 92 on Inc. Magazine’s annual list of the fastest-growing private companies in the United States, the Inc. 500, according to a release from LLT. LLT Group secured its spot on the prestigious list by producing a three-year sales growth of 3,560 percent.

LLT Group received further acclaim by Inc. as the noted business publication recognized the digital marketing agency as the 13th top advertising & marketing company in the United States as well as the No. 5 fastest-growing company in the Chicago metropolitan area and No. 4 in the state of Illinois.

The Inc. 500|5000 represents a comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy—America’s independent entrepreneurs. Companies such as Zappos, Under Armour, Microsoft, GoPro, Patagonia, LinkedIn, Fitbit, and many other well-known names gained early exposure as members of the Inc. 500|5000.

“We have worked extremely hard and built something in the toughest times of our economy. With sheer passion and commitment to our clients and with the mind set of, dream big, hustle hard, we have laid a foundation for years to come,” said LLT Group Co-Founder and Agency Principal Rahul Wahi.

The 2015 Inc. 500|5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2011 to 2014. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2011.

They had to be U.S.-based, privately held, for profit, and independent--not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies--as of December 31, 2014. (Since then, a number of companies on the list have gone public or been acquired.)

“As a company we are proud of landing on such a prestigious list as the Inc. 500 as it speaks to the impressive collaborative effort of our entire team,” said LLT Group Co-Founder and Creative Director Tony Zipparro. “More importantly though, we are excited to see where our continued hard work takes us in the future.”

The minimum revenue required for 2011 is $100,000; the minimum for 2014 is $2 million. As always, Inc. reserves the right to decline applicants for subjective reasons.
