The Inaugural Convert2Media/Mobooka Race Day!

Posted by: Susie under Convert2Media News, Events

0

To celebrate our recent ranking on the Inc. 500 list, the Convert2Media and Mobooka crews hit Orlando Kart Center on Friday for our first annual Race Day. It was glorious.

So yes, we did race go-karts (not Steve’s Lotus) but these were some very serious go-karts. These were Tony Karts.

If you’re like me and have never heard of them, Tony Karts aren’t your typical “family fun” go-karts. They are imported from Italy and they drive up to 45 miles per hour, which is pretty crazy given how small and lightweight they are.

These carts are designed for Formula One-style competition and are not to be messed around with. The owner of Orlando Kart Center, the location of our races, is the only Tony Kart importer in the United States.

Once we all had chosen our helmets and set up our race driver names, the competition was on.

Check out this footage of the final race!

Hunter West of Mobooka (a.k.a. CallMeMaybe) took home the gold trophy after shutting out C2M Network Manager Mike Kerry (a.k.a. GetSmokedFool) for the win. Jason Kunisch of Mobooka (a.k.a. DerpMcGirk) took third place.

Congrats, Hunter! (a.k.a. CallMeMaybe)

Sorry, Mike and Jason, but to quote infamous race car driver Ricky Bobby, “If you ain’t first, you’re last.” Congrats, Hunter, for taking home the gold!

Honorable mentions go to Business Development Manager Robert Dolan (a.k.a. El Arbol) who had the best lap time at 70.865 seconds, putting his top speed at 40.6 miles per hour.

I also have to give a major shout out to the newest member of Convert2Media, our amazing Campaign Manager Melissa Clarady (a.k.a Whitearican) who bravely represented the girls of C2M and sucessfully beat out four of the guys. (After our first two races, programmer Megan and I decided to choose life and opted out of the remaining races.) Melissa will surely be in the winner’s circle in the next go-around.

Here’s the final rankings:

The racers’ names are as follows:

1. CallMeMaybe – Hunter West
2. GetSmokedFool – Mike Kerry
3. DerpMcGirk – Jason Kunisch
4. El Arbol – Robert Dolan
5. HoweMoney – Steve Howe
6. Super Donkey Punch – Kiley Lenstrom
7. Cam – Camren Majors
8. Stylee – Payton Jass
9. Obry – Obry!
10. Inhale My Fumes – Matt Hoyler
11) Whitearican – Melissa Clarady
12) Jim Whitney (The Man Himself)
13) BreesNuts – Ryan Hurry
14) Fat Boy – Art Kerry
15) Fraudy Audi – Audi Kowalski

The results are in!

We are extremely proud to announce that Convert2Media has been ranked 111th on the 2012 Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies in America. We are also 17th in the Advertising and Marketing industry and the 7th fastest-growing company in Central Florida.

Michael Durham and I will be in attendance for the Inc. 500|5000 Conference & Awards Ceremony in Phoenix, Ariz., on October 5th to accept the hardware.

Firstly and most importantly, we could not have done this without our amazing publishers and advertisers. We want to thank you all for your continued support and loyalty to Convert2Media over the last five years. It has been our distinct privilege to serve you. We certainly couldn’t have achieved this level of recognition without our kick ass clients.

I also want to thank the employees here at C2M. They are like family to me and they have been the lifeblood of this company. Only one word can summarize our team: Awesome!

Their hard work and dedication can be directly attributed to the rapid growth and overall success of Convert2Media. Rest assured, we’re not done growing. The marketplace is expanding into new areas from where we are today and this is just a fraction of our larger accomplishments yet to come.

Secondly, I want to explain how we got on this list and exactly what it means.

The 2012 Inc. 500|5000 is ranked according to percentage revenue growth when comparing 2008 to 2011. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2008. They had to be US-based, privately held, for profit, and independent (not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies) as of December 31, 2011. The minimum revenue required for 2008 is $100,000; the minimum for 2011 is $2 million.

Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found at http://www.inc.com/inc5000.

Inc. Magazine reports that despite the sluggish economy, the median growth rate among Inc. 500 and 5000 companies is 97 percent. In the past three years, these companies have created more than 400,000 jobs and generated aggregate revenue of $299 billion.

We are extremely proud to be a part of that growth and defying the odds in a weak global economy.
