Businesses are trading in their filing cabinets that are filled with files from who knows how long ago and using document scanners to scan and store their important documents. By using a document scanner for your business, you open up more space in your office, you can bolster the security of sensitive information, plus you have an electronic copy of critical documents that will not be irretrievably lost. 
To help you choose the best document scanner for your business, there are some key questions you want to ask yourself that will help you effectively narrow your search. 
The type of scanner you select should be able to easily scan the types of documents you need to digitize and render clear, crisp images. Are you scanning paper documents and receipts? Do you need to scan photo identification? Are you planning on scanning photographs?
The items you plan to scan should be the primary consideration when selecting a scanner. Most document scanners are capable of handling paper records, receipts and photo identification with ease.
To scan photographs, though, you’ll need a scanner designed specifically for images. Photo scanners offer higher resolution and enhanced color, preserving the appearance of photographs when rendered digitally.
If you plan to digitize paper archives, you will need a high-volume document scanner. High-end document scanners usually come with an automatic feeder that can digitize large amounts of paperwork without requiring close supervision, allowing you to create a digital archive of your files. 
If you plan to scan documents occasionally, though, you’ll be better served with a less expensive model. Depending on your needs, there are portable document scanners that do the job, as well as smartphone applications that use your phone’s camera to digitally recreate documents. [Interested in learning more about document management software? Check out our reviews and best picks.] 
Optical character recognition (OCR) allows your computer to easily read the text in your documents. OCR makes it easy to organize, search for and format your scanned documents. OCR is generally an industry-standard feature included in most modern document scanners, and it can be a huge timesaver for businesses. 
It’s critical that the document scanner you’re considering purchasing is compatible with the operating system you use. Most document scanners work well with PC software, while fewer are available for Mac. If your business uses Mac OS, verify with the sales rep or the manufacturer that the document scanner you are considering is compatible. (Even if the scanner isn’t immediately compatible with Mac OS out of the box, you can install third-party drivers, however, these can sometimes reduce functionality and hamper performance.)
A contact image sensor is the less expensive and more compact option. However, it will struggle to adequately scan wrinkled paper or bound pages. Buying a charge-coupled device eliminates this problem, but the scanner will take up a substantial amount of space and cost far more.
If you’re only scanning documents, the standard 600 to 1,200 dpi will do. If you’re scanning photos, you’ll need at least 2,000 dpi. However, be prepared to pay substantially more for a higher-dpi scanner.
Like resolution, low color depth is OK if you’re only scanning documents. For photos, you should aim for at least 48-bit color depth.
Many modern features wirelessly connect to your devices; however, USB connectivity is still good to have as a backup option. Alternatively, if you want a printer that doesn’t connect wirelessly, you can choose USB connectivity over other types of connections.
As with any product, specifications are but one element of the overall solution. Without an abundance of positive customer reviews, good specs don’t mean much.

The state of the document-scanning art
I focus on printer and scanner technology and reviews. I have been writing about computer technology since well before the advent of the internet. I have authored or co-authored 20 books—including titles in the popular Bible, Secrets, and For Dummies series—on digital design and desktop publishing software applications. My published expertise in those areas includes Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Photoshop, and QuarkXPress, as well as prepress imaging technology. (Over my long career, though, I have covered many aspects of IT.)
The Fujitsu fi-8170 is a fast and accurate desktop document scanner that's ideal as a front end for high-powered document archiving applications.
It’s been more than seven years since Fujitsu updated the flagship model in its series of midrange to high-volume sheetfed desktop document scanners. The fi-8170 ($1,195) reviewed here replaces the fi-7160 we tested back in February 2015. It’s superior to that machine in every way—speed, capacity, volume, and accuracy—and it even tops two of our favorites, last year’s Raven Pro Document Scanner and 2018’s Alaris S2060w.
Like all the Fujitsu models we’ve reviewed over the past few years, the fi-8170 is fast and accurate, and it comes with terrific software for scanning and saving your documents in a variety of popular formats. I’m not thrilled with the price (though it should come down relatively soon), but this is a first-class product that, if it’s like other Fujitsu scanners, should last on the market for a long time. Let’s get into the host of reasons to make the fi-8170 our latest Editors’ Choice winner for document scanning and archiving in busy offices and workgroups.
In document imaging and management technology, seven years is a very long shelf life, perhaps as many as two or three generations. As I said a moment ago, everything about this new model improves on its fi-7160 predecessor, and as you can see below, the fi-8170 looks nothing like the 2015 version.
Even so, the two scanners measure an identical 6.4 by 11.8 by 6.7 inches (HWD) with their trays closed, and the newer device is only half a pound heavier, at 9.8 pounds. Like comparable document scanners, the fi-8170 increases its depth more than threefold when its trays are open for business.
You don’t, however, need to extend the scanner’s trays all the way—the device is designed to work with the trays in various stages of extension. The scanner can be configured for smaller loads that eject onto the desktop, saving all kinds of space.
Most high-volume document scanners like this one, including but not limited to the Epson DS-970 and DS-870 workgroup scanners, the abovementioned Raven Pro and Alaris S2060w, and Canon’s ImageFormula DR-M260, are relatively close in size and girth. Like them, the fi-8170 supports basic scan setup and execution, as well as selecting predefined workflow profiles, from an onboard control panel. The latter consists of a series of buttons—Stop/Clear, Scan/Error, Menu, Manual Feed, and Power—anchored by a small rectangular display.
From here, you can manage individual scan jobs or select a profile that executes scans according to predefined instructions. A profile typically contains all aspects of a scan job including resolution; file format (image or searchable PDF, Word, Excel, plain text, and so on); and destination (an application, local drive, or one of several cloud sites). The profiles and other document management features rely on the bundled software, which we’ll talk more about in a moment.
Oddly, the Fujitsu’s connectivity is limited to USB (versions 2.0 and 3.x) and 10Mbps through 1,000Mbps Ethernet. In other words, you get no Wi-Fi or other wireless support, pretty much eliminating using the scanner with phones, tablets, or other handheld devices.
As for paper handling, the fi-8170’s automatic document feeder (ADF) holds up to 100 sheets varying in size from 2 by 2 inches to legal (8.5 by 14 inches), plus a long document mode that supports sheets up to 20 feet long. Its 10,000-scan daily duty cycle is the highest among the machines mentioned here so far, though it’s matched by two Visioneer scanners we tested in 2017, the Patriot H60 and Patriot H80, that boast 120-sheet ADFs.
The Epson DS-870 and DS-970 also have 100-sheet automatic document feeders, though their maximum daily duty cycles are 7,000 and 9,000 scans respectively. The Alaris S2060w and Canon DR-M260 each hold up to 80 sheets, with respective daily limits of 7,000 and 7,500 scans. The Raven Pro has a 100-sheet ADF, but its recommended daily limit is only 6,000 scans.
Fujitsu reps have told me more than once that their higher-end scanners like the fi-8170 operate under the assumption that the machine is likely to be deployed in an existing, high-end document management solution. But if not—if you’re preparing to roll out a new document archiving application—between Fujitsu’s bundled programs and available add-ons, you can create and maintain a basic solution, a sophisticated one, or anything in between.
The fi-8170 comes with a long list of apps and utilities: PaperStream IP Driver (Twain x32/x64/ISIS), WIA Driver, Image Scanner Driver for macOS, Image Scanner Driver for Linux, PaperStream Capture, PaperStream ClickScan, Software Operation Panel, Error Recovery Guide, ABBYY FineReader for ScanSnap, and Scanner Central Admin. For larger, enterprise-level document management, you can upgrade to PaperStream Capture Pro and PaperStream NX Manager.
The standard Twain and ISIS drivers let you use the scanner with the many third-party applications (such as Adobe Photoshop and Acrobat, Microsoft Word and Excel, and hundreds of others) that support scanning into them directly, as do the drivers for macOS and Linux. PaperStream Capture is a capable front-end scanning utility. If you need more, according to Fujitsu, the $470-per-seat upgrade to PaperStream Capture Pro “benefits organizations and departments that require an efficient yet easy way to convert paper documents into digital files for high-level data indexing and extraction,” improving records management processes.
Fujitsu’s PaperStream NX Manager provides built-in server software to easily integrate centralized client-server document management systems—basically, fleet management software on steroids.
Fujitsu rates the fi-8170 at 70 simplex (one-sided) pages per minute (ppm) and 140 two-sided (duplex) images per minute (ipm, where each page side is counted as an image). Of the machines mentioned here so far, only the Epson DS-970 tops that, at 85ppm and 170ipm respectively. Fujitsu’s older fi-7160 is rated at 60ppm and 120ipm, as are the Alaris S2060w, the Canon DR-M260, and the Raven Pro. The Epson DS-870, at 65ppm and 130ipm, lands in the middle.
To see for myself, I tested the scanner using PaperStream ClickScan over a USB connection to our Intel Core i5 testbed running Windows 10 Pro. First, I clocked the fi-8170 as it scanned our 25-page single-sided and double-sided (50 images) text documents, and I continued timing while the bundled ABBYY FineReader optical character recognition (OCR) software converted and saved the scanned text to an image PDF.
The fi-8170 scanned the document at 72.9ppm and 149ipm, slightly faster than its rated speeds. Only the DS-970 posted a faster score (78.9ppm and 176.2ipm), with the DS-870 not far behind at 69ppm and 139ipm. All the others managed between 55ppm and 65ppm for single-sided pages and 110ipm to 140ipm for double-sided docs.
Next, I clocked the Fujitsu as it scanned, converted, and saved the double-sided (50 images) document to searchable rather than image PDF, a much more versatile format used, among many things, to create document archiving systems. The new scanner performed the entire routine in 25 seconds, more than three times faster than its fi-7160 predecessor.
Completing this task in 25 seconds may sound fast, and it is, but it’s also about average for scanners at this level. The Epson DS-970 may be considerably quicker, but it was tested with an earlier version of our benchmark software using different documents, making comparisons potentially misleading. The DS-870 and Raven Pro did the same job in 24 seconds, while the Alaris S2060w took a leisurely 58 seconds.
Without question, these high-volume desktop document scanners are fast enough to handle all but the most formidable volume levels. If your office or workgroup requires more than 10,000 scans per day, the next step up is an industrial-strength sheetfed document scanner such as, say, Xerox’s $6,500 DocuMate 6710, with its duty cycle of 35,000 scans daily.
It doesn’t, however, take many errors to spoil the fastest scan job—the more time you or a team member must spend correcting conversion errors, the less point in using a scanner. Fortunately, most scanners nowadays—whether under-$100 manual-fed portables or mighty machines like the Xerox 6710—are highly accurate. And with error-free results at sizes down to 5 points in both our serif (Times New Roman) and sans-serif (Arial) font tests, the Fujitsu fi-8170 is one of the most accurate document scanners we’ve seen lately.
For the record, the Epson DS-870 and Raven Pro scanners tied the Fujitsu’s accuracy; the Canon DR-M260 managed 5 points error-free with Arial and 6 points with Times New Roman, while the Alaris turned in a highly respectable 6 points with both. (Again, direct comparisons with the Epson DS-970 weren’t practical.) It’s important to note that all these scores are better than acceptable. 
Aside from its steep price and lack of support for Wi-Fi and mobile devices, there’s little to dislike about the Fujitsu fi-8170. There are several desktop document scanners with 100-sheet ADFs and impressive speed and OCR accuracy to choose from, and for the most part they all perform fine, with no paper jams or trying to feed more than one sheet at a time. It’s been seven years since the last major upgrade to this product line, and the fi-8170 is a good example of the progression of desktop document scanning technology over that time. It’s also our newest favorite high-volume document management solution.
The Fujitsu fi-8170 is a fast and accurate desktop document scanner that's ideal as a front end for high-powered document archiving applications.

Finding the right B2B SaaS marketing agency may feel challenging, given the number of well-qualified players in the field. While it can be tough to choose, it’s possible when you consider the following factors:
B2B SaaS marketing agencies have different specializations. While some offer full-service marketing, if you only need a specific requirement, i.e., lead generation or performance marketing, you are better off going to specialists whose expertise can give you the desired results.
Budget is a primary consideration when deciding to work with an agency. It depends on the scope of work and the timeframe. Understanding your goals will help you stick to your budget when selecting an agency. Consider also the payment terms. Some agencies agree on a pay-per-performance model, which assures that they will exhaust all means to deliver results. 
If you already have an existing marketing team, assess if the agency you’re getting will compliment them or replace some of their functions. It’s also best to engage a marketing agency if you already have an internal marketing team who can constantly collaborate with the agency. 
Working with an agency will involve several techs you must be willing to adopt and pay for. If you have existing ones, consider if they will use them. If they won’t, determine if it’s a deal breaker for you or not. 
Before choosing a B2B SaaS marketing agency, research their past works and ask around. Verify that what they post is accurate and look for a display of expertise. You don’t want to work with the wrong agency that can harm your SaaS growth.
Hiring a B2B SaaS marketing agency is your best course of action when you’re experiencing low-quality leads, poor conversions, lackluster revenues, and a virtually unknown brand. With tons of experience and expertise developed by helping numerous SaaS companies, these agencies can produce the results you’ve been dreaming of. They can help catapult your SaaS to a broader audience and pave the way for massive growth. 
Don’t hesitate to reach out to them and let them run your marketing campaigns. This could be your chance to succeed. 
B2B SaaS means business-to-business software-as-a-service. They refer to cloud-based software used by businesses to run various tasks like CRM (customer relationship marketing), bookkeeping & accounting, office productivity, and other work-related functions. 
A SaaS Marketing Agency is a group of marketing experts specializing in specific marketing activities designed to grow your SaaS company. SaaS, particularly B2B SaaS, rely on targeted marketing activities such as growth marketing, lead generation, and conversion rate optimization (CRO) to reach the right audience and grow their subscribers.

If you are looking for an alternative to CamScanner for quick document scanning, here are some options to consider.
CamScanner is a pretty popular mobile app that lets you turn any device into a mobile image scanner. Yet, CamScanner isn’t without its problems.
In 2019, CamScanner was found to contain a malicious module within its advertising library that has been classified as malware. CamScanner was briefly removed from the App Store as a result.
Allegedly, all traces of malware are now gone from the program, though you’ll be forgiven for still having some misgivings about the app.
So, if you’re looking for an alternative that is a little more reputable, or just don’t find CamScanner particularly effective, here are the six best CamScanner alternatives.
First on this list comes Adobe Scan, one of the many lesser-known Adobe apps that you can download on your phone. This app requires an account to use, but is entirely free despite the signup.
Using the app itself is easy. Adobe Scan comes with an in-built boundary detection feature, which allows it to automatically detect the edges of what you’re scanning without any hassle. You can clean this up yourself on the rare occasions that the app gets this wrong.
You can also select a range of different modes such as “whiteboard” and “book” which make it easier to get what you want. Once you’ve taken the picture that you want, there are a number of things that you can do. You can rip the text directly from the image and copy it onto your clipboard, or convert it into a PDF or JPEG.
You can easily adjust images that you’ve taken before turning them into documents as well. If the colors seem off you can tweak them in various filters, and if there are any creases or marks you want removed, Adobe Scan also features a smart cleanup tool to help you on your way.
Download: Adobe Scan for Android | iOS (Free, subscription available)
Next on this list is Microsoft Office Lens. This app integrates into the Microsoft Office Suite more directly than most other CamScanner alternatives, so if you use a lot of Microsoft Office apps, then this might be a good pick for you.
Microsoft Office Lens behaves about how you might expect. You scan an image, touch it up, then export it. Microsoft Office Lens does support automatic boundary detection and a couple of different scanning modes, as well.
You have the option to save the scan as an image or a PDF if you want, but the main draw to Microsoft Office Lens is that you can save your scans directly to Microsoft Office format.
If you want to add the scan to a OneNote notebook, to your OneDrive Cloud, as a Word document (this will only extract the text, mind you), or to a PowerPoint, then this is the best way to do it.
Download: Microsoft Lens for Android | iOS (Free)
You can get a lot done with Google Drive if you know the right tips and tricks for it, so if you’re more into Google Docs than Microsoft Word, here's one more. Google Drive comes with in-built document scanning functionality.
All you need to do to get started is open the Google Drive app on your phone. In the bottom right, there’s a plus you can tap on to get to the scanning menu.
The system here’s a little different from some other entries on the list. Google Drive does come with automatic boundary detection, but it doesn’t show you the process as you’re trying to take this picture.
This means that you’re more likely to end up with images that have strange or incorrect borders, since you have no feedback until after you take your photo.
Once you’re done, you can save the image or series of images as a PDF directly to your Google Drive.
Download: Google Drive for Android | iOS (Free)
Next up on this list comes TurboScan. If you’re looking for free alternatives to CamScanner, then this certainly fits the bill, though it’s worth noting that you’ll be locked into a limited number of scans unless you purchase the app.
TurboScan functions much like any other CamScanner alternative. Where it excels, however, is in the range of options it gives you to adjust your image after you take it.
This is especially true if you want to convert a color image into black and white. All options have five different settings, so you can pick just how light or dark you want it, and you can choose between black and white, color, or photo-realistic.
Once created, you have the option to send the image to others if you so wish, or even email the page to yourself.
Download: TurboScan for Android | iOS (Free)
Download: TurboScan for Android ($5.99) | iOS ($9.99)
If you’re looking for even greater control over the look of your images, then TapScanner is a good alternative. Where TurboScan lets you search through a range of five options to find the best fit for your image, TapScanner lets you customize the image entirely.
TapScanner comes with nine different filters for you to pick from and the ability to adjust the brightness and contrast down to the percent using a couple of handy sliders.
From there you can save your image and then export it as either a PDF or an image.
Download: TapScanner for Android | iOS (Free, subscription available)
Next up on this list comes Notebloc, a great option for any of you who want something straightforward or easy to use. Notebloc may not have all the bells and whistles that some of its alternatives have, but if you’re less tech-savvy or feeling a little overwhelmed by some other options on this list, then Notebloc is an excellent choice.
Notebloc scans simply, automatically borders without being obtrusive, and lets you adjust your image to one of a couple of filters. You can export your scans as images or as PDFs as you so wish as well.
Download: Notebloc for Android | iOS (Free)
Hopefully, this list has helped you to sort through some of the many alternatives available for CamScanner available for both iOS and Android. No matter what phone you use, there are a range of options out there just waiting for you.
So, why not search for the best? There’s no reason to settle for the first thing that you see. There’s always more that you can uncover with such a wide selection of alternatives just waiting for you.

Search Engine Land » Google » Google SEO » Google Using OCR To Index Scanned Documents
It used to be that, if you hoped Google would index a PDF file, you had to create a PDF that was text-based, not image-based; Googlebot couldn’t recognize the content of scanned or image-based documents. According to an announcement today, that’s no longer the case.
Google says it’s now using OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology to read any scanned documents that it finds in PDF format:
This Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology lets us convert a picture (of a thousand words) into a thousand words — words that can be searched and indexed, so that these valuable documents are more easily found.
Google’s announcement includes a few examples where you can see the results of OCR scanning in action. On a search for repairing aluminum wiring, the first result is a Consumer Product Safety Commission PDF that was clearly scanned as an image. You can now get the text of that image thanks to Google’s OCR scanning and the “View as HTML” link on the search results page. As with any use of OCR, results are probably not going to be perfect. But the examples Google provides do look quite accurate.
Countless new documents are now available to searchers — documents that were never available before. On the other hand, if you’ve been scanning and uploading image-based PDFs knowing that they’d never be found by searchers — and I know people who have — you may want to rethink that strategy.

Paper-based systems make it difficult to manage your business-critical documents. Here are the best document management software you can use instead.
If you're still using physical ways to keep your files and paper, you're missing out on a lot. Physically storing files takes too much storage space. You always need cabinets, which makes searching and tracking a particular file quite challenging.
Alternatively, document management software allows you to manage an unlimited number of files easily. Plus, they are comparatively more secure and flexible, making it easier for multiple team members to work together on a single document.
So, let's find out what document management software you can use to manage your files.
It is a secure platform to store your personal and collaborative files. Over 5 million users trust them worldwide and use this software to manage their files.
It offers three different types of storage for your documents:
Additionally, you can choose to store your documents on cloud or on-premise storage, depending on your needs. And navigate through multiple files by typing their name or a short description about them. They're all saved in the document library.
You can also like the documents to keep them at the top of search results for quick access. The tool also allows you to add comments to the documents and keep multiple document versions with editing history. It makes it easier to track changes in the future. Plus, you can also use different apps to edit your document.
For security purposes, Bitrix24 allows you to lock your document by clicking on the lock button. It makes the document inaccessible to other people. The software has both free and paid versions. You can get one based on your needs.
Whether you're a student, a small contractor, or have a big company with multiple employees, you can use this tool to keep and organize your data and files. It allows you to search the files just by typing their name in the search bar.
You can also get quick access to specific files by keeping them in the portfolio and automate the workflow with this software, as it automatically files the documents you upload. It allows both on-site and cloud-based storage.
Furthermore, you need not keep its application on all of your devices. You can access your files from anywhere in the world using a web browser. However, only certain people with a password can access the data for security purposes. Permissions are given to employees based on their roles.
All the files you shared are encrypted, and you have to go through two-factor authentication. For more convenience, you can also set IP or location-based authentication.
Besides, if you're a company or a solo entrepreneur, you'd be happy to know that this software also allows signing contracts. To ease your work, you can integrate the software with third-party apps like DocuSign, Salesforce, and Microsoft Office.
With over 1 billion monthly active users and 6 million paid users, Google is so far the most popular file storage solution. People use it for personal, team, and company file storage.
It allows seamless integration with cloud-based apps. Plus, it supports multiple formats, so you can store your file without switching its type—for instance, PDF, Word, and others. Searching documents in your Google Drive is also convenient. Just type the name, and there it is!
It provides shared space for team members. Still, the data remains inaccessible for outsiders because of its Data Loss Prevention (DLP) feature.
The software allows you to save your documents and create, view, and edit them as well. Plus, if you edit those documents using this tool, it'll keep the history of the changes made. This way, you don't need to keep multiple versions of the file. They're all stored in one document.
Google Drive provides free storage of up to 15 GB for all of its users. If you need more storage than this, you'll need to get a premium plan.
This is another great, cloud-based file-sharing tool that enables you to keep and organize your files. Over 130,000 users worldwide trust this platform with their documents and files.
You can organize your documents in two ways with this software:
This tool offers advanced features to search and retrieve your documents, over 75 customizable templates, and commenting and editing features. Plus, if anyone on the team assigns a task to another team member, they'll get notified for on-time actions.
Additionally, you can control the permissions of the documents and manage who can access them in the team. It's free for up to 10 users. For anything above that, you'll need to buy its premium version.
With over 190 million people having access to SharePoint Online's features, it's a Microsoft tool that allows you to organize documents, teams, and workflow.
Apart from storing your files, you can create and edit documents using this tool and use it to collaborate with multiple team members. It allows you to update files' metadata, enabling a quick search.
This way, if you forget a file name or have multiple files with nearly the same name, you can find the document just by typing some words written in the metadata. The tool is also available for mobile apps. However, you'd need to get a subscription of $5 per month to use it.
Another document management software on the list is Paper Tracer. It's made for small, medium, and enterprise-level businesses.
It helps you automate your contracts, digitalize documents, and track and report all saved files. Plus, it's HIPAA-compliant, which means it follows the security law and prevents any data leakage. It also provides an e-signature facility. Hence, it's a great tool for healthcare, legal, or any business that completes projects on a contract basis.
The software offers end-to-end workflow solutions and offers cloud-based implementation. It's a good tool for small businesses with up to 10 employees and medium-sized companies with 100 employees or more.
If you still store your files physically and go through all the trouble, it's time to stop.
The list offers multiple software that provides plenty of free storage. Start with these and make it easier to keep, organize, and manage your files with the collaboration of numerous team members.

It’s a dream-come-true to join forces and I feel like I’m coming home with a bunch of smart, cool, and friendly people who feel like family.”
Rapid Expansion
Within the last year, 919 Marketing has acquired two other companies: Ceralytics, a groundbreaking content intelligence platform that uses predictive analytics and natural language processing to drive audiences to engage and convert; and NetSearch Digital Marketing, a pioneering internet marketing firm specializing in SEO, PPC, and web design services for local and national clients.
These assets now position 919 Marketing as the leading tech-enabled content and digital marketing firm in franchising and non-profits to help local, regional, and national companies increase brand awareness, drive leads, and increase consumer engagement and conversion.
In addition to 919 Marketing’s headquarters based outside of Raleigh, North Carolina, the company has a presence in all four time zones thanks to a highly skilled and dedicated remote workforce.
The company has an impressive three-year growth rate of more than 130 percent, despite the impact of COVID-19. The company was ranked on Forbes’ prestigious 2021 inaugural list of America’s Best PR Agencies, Entrepreneur Magazine’s list of top PR firms for the franchise industry, and ranked on the coveted Inc. 5000 list as the highest-ranked and fastest-growing franchise PR firm.
Brands of all sizes trust 919 Marketing to provide smart, creative strategies and responsive marketing services that drive measurable results. Our impressive roster of franchise brands includes American Family Care, Zaxby’s, Tim Horton’s, and Wild Birds Unlimited, along with blue-chip companies including Stanley Black & Decker, Ally Bank, and Proctor and Gamble’s Tide Cleaners.
