The Bluewire Story
The Bluewire boys -- Adam Franklin & Toby Jenkins started their business from scratch.
When Toby Jenkins & Adam Franklin returned from overseas in 2005, they knew they wanted to start a business. However, they faced a few minor challenges -- no money, no experience & no idea. Nevertheless, they decided to start Bluewire Media, the Sydney and Brisbane managed web strategy company, despite not knowing how to design a website and never having been in business before!
Since then, they've built a leading managed web strategy company employing over 10 staff and servicing over 300 clients. They've been profiled on TV, radio and in the paper and both actively speak, write, blog and tweet in the digital and business community. In 2010, both Toby and Adam were recognised in Australia's Hot 30 Under 30 list of young entrepreneurs. They are very passionate about business and their BHAG, or big hairy audacious goal, for Bluewire Media is to be the Google of web design!
On their journey, Toby and Adam have learnt a tremendous amount from the advice of mentors, colleagues and peers & of course trial and error! They love to discuss their experiences with others and are always up for learning more.
