Bulldog Media Group In Its 13th Year

In January, Bulldog Media Group, Inc. entered its 13th year in business, which marked its 13th year being a leader in marketing credit cards and other financial products.

“We were actually getting into business when a lot of people were getting out back in 2000 during the ‘dot com bubble’,” stated president Darin Namken. “We saw a need that we knew we could meet and things really took off for us from there. In establishing ourselves, we established partnerships and relationships that have lasted years, which has a lot to do with having over a third of our employees having been with our company for more than 10 years. While we have really remained resilient, we’ve seen many businesses, competitors, and clients come and go over the years for various reasons, including legislation, but we just look forward to the challenge ahead and the opportunities to succeed. ”

Bulldog Media Group, Inc. has continued to meet changing needs and demands by providing many different marketing avenues through its divisions: the CommissionSoup affiliate network, Infusion Strategies, and The RewardsRunner Network. The company was initially founded as CreditSoup, Inc. but underwent a corporate name change in 2009.
