Journal of New England Technology DM Article
DirectoryM has made headlines once again, but this time in the Journal of New England Technology. Although the article discusses DirectoryM finances and earnings, it focuses primarily on the effort to increase localized content, which recently included investing $2 million into expanding DirectoryM’s online database centralization. Content centralization focuses on supplying consumers with relevant business services and information, and DirectoryM, according to cofounder and CEO, Panos Beathanis, is striving for global recognition: “Our goal is to become the central database in…countries well before anybody even thinks of database centralization.”

Inc. Article
Note: In June of 2008, Inc. published an article on DirectoryM that featured how DirectoryM was dealing with its 4.5 million dollar debt resulting from a buy-back the previous year. This month, Inc. published a follow up article explaining how DirectoryM has dealt with the demands of such a debt, as well as how the company has grown, evolved, and changed since the last publication.
When managing a business, it’s difficult to organize, pay, and control debt. CEO and cofounder of DirectoryM, Panos Bethanis, understands this all too well. In 2007, Bethanis decided to buy back DirectoryM from venture capitalists, although this would place the company in a 4.5 million dollar debt. While there was skepticism from employees, partners, and financial experts, after an article featuring this decision was published by Inc. in June of 2008, DirectoryM continued growing and evolving.
According to Inc.’s recent Jully 2009 article, “DirectoryM now boasts partnerships with 500 content partners, which helped it reach its 2008 revenue goal of $4 million and open five international offices. The company has also added 75 employees, including 42 overseas.” In addition to featuring DirectoryM’s financial and personnel growth, the article also explains how Bethanis and his employees reestablished DirectoryM and dealt with what, in many instances, would have been overwhelming financial obstacles.
