About the Winner

How does this sound? "Stay-at-home mother of two running a marketing and public relations business that's been featured on CNN and elsewhere and is generating six figures of revenue." We thought it sounded pretty good, so much so that we placed Julie Trade-Levitch's company as Runner Up (#2) in the Top Ten Recession Busters category.

Her clients include British Telecom, MediaRing, Argent Software, MansaSys, and Novothink. She leads a full-service agency that provides specialized services to her clients including brand development, technical writing, media relations, marketing collateral, and search engine optimization. She started her business after she became a mom and seriously ramped up her efforts after her husband was laid off in 2007. Despite the recession, her revenues are up - a true testimony to her Recession Buster status.
