BB3 Makes the Inc. 5000 List for the Second Year Consecutively
Atlanta, GA, January 20, 2026 --(PR.com)-- BB3 Ranks No. 3203 on the 2025 Inc. 5000 List of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies
With Three-Year Revenue Growth of 125% Percent, This Marks BB3’s 2nd Time on the List consecutively.
Inc., the leading media brand and playbook for the entrepreneurs and business leaders shaping our future, today announced that BB3 is No. 3203 on the annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list provides a data-driven snapshot of the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent, entrepreneurial businesses. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Under Armour, Timberland, Oracle, and Patagonia.
"What makes this recognition especially meaningful is that we've been doing this for nearly 15 years. We're not the new kid on the block hitting a lucky growth spurt. We're an established agency that's still growing at 125% because we've never stopped evolving. A lot of agencies get comfortable with what worked five years ago, but we've built our business on staying ahead of the curve. Whether it was being early to CTV and Influencer marketing or constantly refining our data strategies, we've proven you don't have to be a scrappy startup to grow fast. You just have to keep listening to what the market needs and be willing to adapt. Our clients stick with us because we deliver results, and that foundation has allowed us to scale in ways we're really proud of." Visit BB3 Advertising for more info.
This year’s Inc. 5000 honorees have demonstrated exceptional growth while navigating economic uncertainty, inflationary pressure, and a fluctuating labor market. Among the top 500 companies on the list, the median three-year revenue growth rate reached 1,552 percent, and those companies have collectively added more than 48,678 jobs to the U.S. economy over the past three years.

“Making the Inc. 5000 is always a remarkable achievement, but earning a spot this year speaks volumes about a company’s tenacity and clarity of vision,” says Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc. “These businesses have thrived amid rising costs, shifting global dynamics, and constant change. They didn’t just weather the storm—they grew through it, and their stories are a powerful reminder that the entrepreneurial spirit is the engine of the U.S. economy.”
Inc. will celebrate the honorees at the 2025 Inc. 5000 Conference & Gala, taking place October 22–24 in Phoenix, and the top 500 will be listed in the Fall issue of Inc. magazine.
