Growing Demand Blog

One ever present theme around Demand Media is rapid GROWTH. For the past three years we’ve been running at breakneck speed and are very pleased with the results. However, for a business to generate consistent and dramatic expansion it takes significant energy and resources and must be managed carefully.

These conferences forced me to reflect on specific approaches and principles that make entrepreneurial ventures GO and GROW. As a transparent company that’s in the spotlight during an intense period of innovation and growth in our industry, we think it’s important to share with other aspiring entrepreneurs and managers some of our most valuable learnings. In the spirit of continued growth and success of the internet industry on the whole, we thought it would be interesting and appropriate to use our own fastest growing property, eHow, to demonstrate how to grow a company fast and effectively, according to our own experiences.
