Company History
Interactive Ink has evolved over its 11 year history. It has undergone transformations and its face has changed, yet one aspect of the organization has been constant: Innovation.
1994
Interactive Ink was founded in 1994 as a Interactive New Media Developer. Our first children's edu-tainment title, Theo the Dinosaur, won The Kid’s Choice Award for “Coolest Animation.” for our publisher, Panasonic Interactive Media.
1996
In 1996, Interactive Ink transitioned to the web as the rest of the world just started to catch on. Along with this shift came the interactive expertise gathered in the early days of multimedia CD-ROMs. Before anyone knew what a "portal" was, we developed and launched the first database driven website featuring a complete and current listing of all central Ohio real estate.
2000
While the dot-coms were failing, Interactive Ink was flourishing. In a period where 7 out of 10 interactive agencies went under, Interactive Ink recognized why... and did something about it. In the heat of opportunity, business and their agencies were forging ahead without sound business planning.
Recognizing this, Interactive Ink introduced a planning process that helped hundreds of organizations succeed on the web while so many others were stumbling. Along the way, we garnered national recognition winning Inc. Magazine's Inner City 100 award for sustained growth.
2002
Enter Ink Academy, a series of fourteen free educational seminars designed to educate clients, prospects, and the community on technology and marketing topics. With the economy in recession, budgets being cut, and new opportunities like email marketing and web content management emerging, many business were deciding where to turn next. Ink Academy was the answer.
2005
Today, Interactive Ink has come full circle, a full service interactive agency committed to innovation online as well as offline. We are seasoned industry veterans, experienced business professionals, and creative young minds. We invite you to share in what we have learned. And we welcome the chance to learn from you.
