DirectNIC in Entrepreneur Magazine's 10th Annual Hot 100 listing

Wow! I am got a call from Sig, and he sent me this link. Of course we also bought all the Entrepreneur Magazines in New Orleans.




This is a link to the article.

http://www.entrepreneur.com/Magazine...315557,00.html

InterCosmos Media Group, the parent company of http://DirectNIC.com , and http://Zipa.com was ranked #34

http://www.entrepreneur.com/hot100/r...l?iRowStart=20


All of the credit for this honor goes to Sig and the top notch staff of InterCosmos.... those guys bust their ass everyday.

HAHA I wish. That is a gross number, net is a totally different number. Plus we continue to invest profits back into the business.

Mutt, you know me, I am a board whore from back in the day...

Bawdy, I am not Greek. Why do you ask?

Ahh yes, I remember him writing it on the plane on the edges of some magazines I had bought. The next day after landing, he had 60+ pages typed up as a business plan.

Sig is Superman.

Thanks for the kind words.

Hopefully this is inspiration for all you hardworking people out there. All 4 owners started in the adult interent business. Sig and I with HiRise/PureCash and Noah and Matt with free hosting.

I am the only one still operating in the adult world, but am happy to have some non-adult interests doing well.

Here is the official press release the PR person just sent me:

May 22, 2004
Press Release

Intercosmos Media Group Inc. Garners National Recognition

New Orleans, LA ? Intercosmos Media Group Inc. is the 34th fastest growing entrepreneurial company in America, according to Entrepreneur Magazine?s 10th Annual Hot 100.

Its fast track to success began in February 1999 when Sigmund Solares, Noah Lieske, Michael Gardner and Matthew Smith founded the company. Since its inception, Intercosmos Media Group has grown from one employee to 56. Intercosmos grossed $15.1million in 2003 alone, primarily on domain name registrations through its registration website, directNIC.com. The company?s success can be attributed to Intercosmos?s commitment to listening to customer needs and offering both excellent products and support. The company also has shown a high commitment to its employees, which is cited by CEO Sigmund J. Solares, J.D., as a significant factor in its success.

?We were happily surprised to be chosen for this distinction,? Solares said. ?Intercosmos is an excellent company worthy of our best efforts, and it?s clear we earn our more than 400,000 clients? trust.?

Qualifications for the distinction of being named to the Entrepreneur?s Hot 100 included the company being formed after 1998, having more than $1 million in annual sales for 2003, and having a founder who is actively involved in daily operations and who has a controlling interest in the business.

?We are just getting started really. Expect to see profound growth in the years to come, especially in the paid hosting and corporate Internet services arenas,? Solares said.

For additional information, contact Intercosmos Media Group Inc. at (504) 679-5170 or visit www.intercosmos.com

Congrats InterCosmos!

That's probably the best recognition I've seen for the Adult Internet Gone Mainstream types!
