Why Expand A Company to Portland Oregon?

By Samuel Wichey


Have you wanted to relocate to Portland Oregon or move your business here? Maybe you are just looking for an additional location for your existing business? It turns out that Portland is quite a great place to turn a profit! DMA Portland reviews some of their tips to starting a Portland business, or moving your business to Portland Oregon.

I'll get to DMA Portland Oregon in a bit. Here are some general stats about the city. Out of all of the other cities in Oregon, Portland is the most populated city. The metro area of Portland is ranked #3 in the Pacific Northwest, outranked only by Seattle, WA and Vancouver, BC. The metropolitan population of Portland Oregon's comes in at number 23 (just like Michael Jordan) when put up against all of the other metro areas in America. Portland Oregon has nearly 2.3 million people in its midst.

Some interesting facts about Portland include the cleanliness, use of land area, and the catchy slogan 'keeping Portland weird.' Although its neighboring city, Seattle has some crazy history and sketchy roots, Portland Oregon has some of its own. The city of Portland was founded very close to the end of the Oregon Trail.

As for the cleanliness, Portland Oregon is considered one of the most environmentally friendly cities in the WORLD! Everywhere you go, you see not only trash cans, but recycling bins - each dedicated to a specific type of product (paper, plastic, metal, etc.) Talk about 'green!'

The city's government has made very nice use of the land area of Portland Oregon as well. Public transportation is easily accessible as are the highways and major road infrastructure. Alongside the pretty decent public transportation system is the intense planning and development of the city's light rail.

If you've ever heard of, or seen, the show 'Portlandia,' then you probably are aware of the 'weirdness' of the city. The catch phrase (but not officially endorsed) of Portland Oregon is "Keeping Portland Weird." There are several nuances that help keep the city 'weird,' from many of the young adults wearing skinny jeans and non-prescription eyeglasses to the many local microbreweries and micro-distilleries.

Now on to DMA Portland: This Portland Oregon based company started with only a few individuals in the beginning and has expanded to great lengths, servicing the entire metropolitan area of the city. DMA Portland is able to recruit a high number of entrepreneurial individuals from the large number of people in the emerging workforce.

DMA Portland focuses on developing its employees into future forerunners of business. The most successful employees are given part ownership of the company and enjoy profit sharing on an executive level. Some of these employees have only been with the company a few years. In order to grow a successful business like that, it takes top talent. Portland has been found to have a large number of college grads looking for work, so that works out fairly nice for the company.

As DMA Portland was founded with only a handful of employees, the company has quickly expanded due to the vast resources and entrepreneurial mindset of its employees. Portland Oregon has some great happy hour establishments, which let the employees gather around a table full of appetizers and beverages to increase teamwork and communication. This is also a key to the company's successteamwork.

Whether you are just visiting Portland Oregon on business or are looking to start you company there, there are more reasons you should, than you shouldn't. DMA Portland is just one company amongst many that have grown and thrived in Portland. Yours could be next!
