Kevin Hourigan Named the Greater Tampa Chamber of Commerce 2012 Outstanding Small Business Leader of the Year

Tampa, FL, October 06, 2012 --(PR.com)-- Bayshore Solutions’ Kevin Hourigan was recognized at the 32nd annual Greater Tampa Chamber of Commerce as Tampa Bay’s Small Business Leader of the Year at the Small Business of the Year Awards evening held at the Tampa Convention Center on September 28. More than 850 people attended to celebrate the accomplishments of Tampa Bay’s small business community at the event

The Small Business of the Year (SBOY) Awards annually pays tribute to businesses with fewer than 250 employees and their respective leaders. Companies and leaders are recognized based on financial success, community involvement and ethical business practices. Each candidate is evaluated through written submissions, personal interviews and a site visit by Chamber of Commerce judges in a six month long process to arrive at the winning selections each year. As vital participants in Tampa Bay’s economic engine, these companies are definitely worth celebrating.

In January 1996, Kevin Hourigan and two partners set out to help businesses enter the online marketplace. After the dot-com bubble burst in 2000, Kevin led the firm through the crisis to achieve bold, solid and debt-free growth through 2012. Bayshore Solutions now offers complete digital marketing services and expertise including: web Design, Web Development, Hosting and Internet marketing (search engine, social media and content marketing).

The company has earned many industry recognitions including Microsoft’s Global Partner of the Year for Customer Service Excellence, consistently named among BtoB Magazine’s Top US Interactive Agencies, and being the only Florida firm to achieve Advertising Age Magazine’s Top US Interactive Agencies listing for nine consecutive years.

This is the second Small Business of the Year award Bayshore Solutions has received from the Greater Tampa Chamber of Commerce. In 2007, the firm won Business of the Year for its solid growth, innovative service and corporate citizenship.
