ES3 doubles its size, expects to hire 2-5 more people

The people behind ES3 aren't just optimistic about their company, they see a lot of potential in where they do business, too.

"We're looking forward to the future and what it brings," says Chris Bean, CEO of ES3. "We're looking forward to a rebounding Michigan."

The Rochester Hills-based company has already experienced huge growth since its founding nearly six years ago. The $20 million firm's revenue has grown 265 percent between 2003 and 2008. It now employs about 50 people, plus 15-100 contractors depending on the time of year.

The new-media marketing company expects to continue to grow at 10-15 percent each year and use that growth to hire 2-5 people for the Rochester Hills office. It has mined some of its new employees from its internship program with Northwood University.

The firm has also opened an office in California and just moved to a new headquarters in Rochester Hills to accommodate its growth.

"We have exceeded our revenue forecasts and targets each year, and we have exceeded them significantly," Bean says.
