Our Birth
Blue16 Marketing launches as Blue16 Media in Woodbridge Virginia. Originally, the organization launched as a full service digital marketing company, providing web design, support, SEO services and social media services.
The name has it’s origin from Blue – being the founder, Gresham “Gresh” W. Harkless Jr.’s favorite color but also for blue representing calmness, trust and professionalism. 16 was Gresh’s line number when he pledged his fraternity but also represents a changing of time. Media was a reminder that every company was in the media business which became more apparent as technologies and digital platforms expanded and launched.
