Kahn Media—a full-service marketing agency specializing in the automotive, outdoor and luxury markets—has earned a spot on Inc. Magazine’s annual list of the top 5000 fastest-growing private companies. The list highlights the small businesses that work within dynamic economic conditions and provide work to thousands of Americans around the country. This is the fifth time the agency has been named to the Inc. 5000 list, with previous awards in 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2024, company officials stated in a press release.
The Inc 5000 list is determined by U.S.-based, privately held companies ranked by year-over-year percentage revenue growth while navigating the ever-changing market, challenging hiring conditions, inflation pressures and recession worries. The minimum revenue required for 2024 was $2 million.
“It’s always an honor to be included on the Inc. 5000 list. We’ve grown from a one-person operation to a team of more than 30 staff across half a dozen states. Returning to the list for the fifth time shows how we serve our clients with creativity and an enthusiast mindset,” said Dan Kahn, CEO and founder of Kahn Media. “We’re excited to continue providing value for our clients and growing into the future.”

In 2025, Kahn Media received multiple Platinum Hermes Creative Awards for its creative work with Maserati and the rebranding of Malco Automotive, and four dotCOMM awards for its work for Roush Performance, Ringbrothers and Galpin Ford.
Recent services Kahn Media has added to its lineup include a Brand Accelerator program to help brands ideally position themselves, an AI Visibility Engine that provides a roadmap to appearing in AI-driven search results and in-house email marketing efforts, officials noted. Kahn Media also continues to grow its sister brand TREAD Agency, which focuses on the outdoor recreation industry.
“The Inc. 5000 list is truly something I look forward to each year. It’s a chance to see how small businesses are pushing the envelope to transform sectors and utilizing tools like AI to streamline operations,” said Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief at Inc. Magazine. “Despite indecisive markets and economic conditions, these companies have proven that American small businesses are creating change and pushing business forward.”
