Atlanta, GA (October 15, 2012) eVerifile, acquired earlier this year by seasoned entrepreneur, Mark Wilson, along with partners, Frontier Capital, The Yucaipa Companies, Magic Johnson Enterprises and Plexus Capital, – has been working diligently for the last two quarters to prepare for its re-emergence as the category’s leader.

“We have a great story to tell. We have acquired a brand with tremendous potential, and today we have the capital and resources to scale it,” explains Mark Wilson, President and CEO of eVerifile. “We selected a partner who has a track record of working with companies who are scaling rapidly and intent on disrupting the category. After a thoughtful search, we selected Trevelino/Keller.”
Recognized as one of the top 30 firms to work for in North America, Trevelino/Keller is often sought by rapidly ascending companies in need of a strategic partner that cuts across public relations, branding, social media and marketing.
“We were impressed with Mark and his team from our initial meeting.
