Sept. 29, 2023 – WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. — Wildfire, a full-service marketing agency headquartered in Winston-Salem, has been ranked #19 on the Triad Business Journal’s “Fast 50” list.

The annual ranking honors the 50 fastest-growing privately held companies in the Triad. Wildfire’s co-founder and Chief Creative Officer, Mike Grice, said Wildfire has grown through a combination of organic growth with existing clients, expansion of interactive and digital marketing practices, and capitalizing on opportunities from new clients seeking assistance.

Wildfire is the only full-service agency on this year’s Fast 50 list, offering services that include branding, strategy, media, creative, digital interactive, and experiential marketing. The agency is poised to continue its growth alongside, and in partnership with, many other rapidly growing companies in the Triad and beyond.

Triad based companies and organizations such as Foster (previously Foster Caviness), Senior Services, Inc., Kaleideum, and Garner Foods have recently partnered with Wildfire, joining long-time clients such as Lowes’ Foods and Truliant Federal Credit Union.

“The number of new businesses investing in the Triad, especially the Carolina Core, gives us a bullish outlook for the next year,” said Brad Bennett, CEO and Chief Firestarter of Wildfire. “In marketing, spending has cooled in some areas and accelerated in others, but overall, it remains healthy.”
