Nelson Schmidt Interactive Division Named to Future 50 for Second Consecutive Year

Ec-connection Specializes in Internet-Driven Marketing

October, 2007

Ec-connection, a division of Nelson Schmidt, has been honored as one of Milwaukee’s Future 50 by the Metropolitan Milwaukee Association of Commerce/Council of Small Business Executives and Small Business Times magazine.

Ec-connection, with projected 2007 revenue of $3.9 million, was founded in 1998 and specializes in marketing and technology services. The company was born out of synergy between Nelson Schmidt, a business-to-business agency, and new technologies. Its target clientele includes healthcare, outdoor recreation, financial services, building products, technology and global manufacturing.

“The primary driver of our growth has been the exponential growth in the adoption and use of the Internet as an effective communications platform to promote and sell products and services globally,” said Dan Nelson, Jr., president of ec-connection and Nelson Schmidt. Nelson added that clients are increasing their use of this medium far more than print, TV, radio and other traditional media.

The Future 50 designation is awarded to companies in the seven-county Milwaukee metropolitan area and is designed to recognize new and growing companies like ec-connection.
