20th Anniversary. Still founder-led. Still growing. Still the agency clients trust with their most important digital marketing investments — for over a decade at a time.
Founded in 2006, we have been in the digital marketing industry longer than most of our competitors.
When Tony Feriozzi and a handful of industry professionals co-founded Triangle Direct Media in early 2006, Google was still young, social media barely existed, and “digital marketing” was a phrase most business owners had never heard. They built TDM from the ground up, not as observers of the industry, but as active architects of it. TDM was among the first agencies in the country to leverage blog marketing and social media to influence search rankings. They noticed a gap in the market; larger agencies treated mid-market companies as an afterthought. TDM was built to change that, giving growing companies Fortune 500-level strategic thinking without Fortune 500-level fees.
That start-up spirit hasn’t faded. Two decades later, the same founders are still in the building, leading strategy, guiding client campaigns, and pushing TDM into the next frontier: AI-driven search and AI Overview optimization. When the landscape changed again, TDM led clients to the success they deserved.
The proof is in longevity. While the average digital marketing agency closes its doors in under five years, TDM clients stay for a decade or more. That’s not a coincidence; it’s the result of a team that treats every client’s success as its own. We take pride in the businesses we help grow, fostering a trusted, transparent partnership.
TDM’s rapid growth earned back-to-back recognition as one of the Inc. 500 | 5000 Fastest-Growing Private Companies in America. Today, the agency is still dedicated to one thing: growing your business online.
