Today I'm pleased to announce that Javelin has been named one of the top 20 digital marketing agencies in Wisconsin by DesignRush Marketplace. DesignRush is an up-and-coming international online directory service matching regional clients with the right web design and marketing firms, by vertical competencies and centers of excellence. They have an informative and sophisticated platform which truly is curated - not pay-for-play. Otherwise, as I told them up front, I would have opted out.

While it's nice to receive this recognition, our greatest satisfaction comes from doing good work on behalf of our clients. Their approval is the only accolade that matters in the long run. And, we understand that it needs to be earned every day, over and over. Only the indolent rest on their laurels, or find gratification in seeing their name listed in some industry directory.

But this appears to be a really good one. I know, because at this point I think I've seen them all.

DesignRush evaluates thousands of agencies and is committed to helping brands find the best solutions for their needs. The platform allows users to search for an agency based on clients, industries, portfolios, reviews, pricing structure and testimonials. I first became aware of them through their blog, doing some recent research on worldwide web design trends. Do check them out if you're shopping for the right design shop to fit your bill.
