PostcardMania is being honored again, for the 3rd year in a row, on the Gulf Coast 500 List...the comprehensive directory of Tampa Bay's most successful businesses, featuring listings from the entire Gulf Coast of Florida.


/Advertising Marketing News Articles/ - CLEARWATER, FL, July 01, 2008 - PostcardMania was recently named as one of the 500 most successful companies of Florida's Gulf Coast, by the Gulf Coast Business Review. 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.

The story of her success was recorded in a one-hour interview, exclusively for aspiring entrepreneurs to help them grow their own businesses and can be heard at http://www.postcardmania.com/marketing-articles/marketing-audio/interviews/
