Meet TriMark Solutions President & Founder, Randy Goins

The evolution of TriMark Solution began to develop in 2001 by TriMark President, Randy Goins, a native of Salisbury North Carolina in Rowan County. At the youthful age of 22, Randy's vision of a marketing firm that could "do it all" for the small to medium size local business owner was created. In September of 2001 Goins created a company called 'Triangle Marketing Solutions' which would shortly thereafter be shorted to TriMark Solutions, aka 'TriMark'. "I was young and had limited knowledge, if any really of what the business word was all about, but on the day my mind allowed me to think up "TriMark" I knew I had developed a brand name that could stick." Goins' enthusiastic and passionate demeanor pushed him over the next several days to develop a business plan and follow his dream of being "successful".

Career Background

Within a few days of developing TriMark Solutions, Goins interviewed with a local online advertising directory, Citysearch.com. Everyone remembers where they were on September 11, 2001. For Randy, at 9:00 AM that morning he was walking into the most important meeting of his young career. A few weeks later Randy was offered a position with Citysearch.com, which at the time was Ticketmaster-Citysearch. The youngest employee by several years in the entire company, Randy recognized his opportunity to achieve the success he desired for so long. It became immediately obvious to Randy that TriMark could not compare to the opportunity Citysearch offered and so TriMark Solutions was placed on hold for several years. During that time, Goins dove in head first to Citysearch.com and became a leader practically overnight. Sacrificing most everything important to him, for over a year it was not uncommon for Randy to sleep at his desk, many days not leaving the office at all. "I was blessed with a drive so strong it's almost to strong. Battling my own need for responsibility and accomplishment I virtually put everything in my life other than work on hold for quite a while so I could achieve the 'success' I've dreamed of for so long." Goins devoted close to 75-90 hrs weekly to Citysearch.com and it's clients and became one of the Triangle areas most knowledgeable local search marketing professionals. Motivated by praise and accomplishment, Goins' father once advised him to "pay attention to what everyone isn't doing and strive to do what they don't do, and that will set you apart." Goins took his father's advice and immediately noticed two crucial ingredients; Those two things were keeping his word and offering quality customer service. These two keys stayed with Goins throughout his 5 year Citysearch career. A career that came to an end on June 1, 2006 when Goins left Citysearch.com to follow his dream with TriMark Solutions. "It was without a doubt the most mentally challenging day of my life. It was important to me to not be labeled a salesperson, although I definately am that. A Consultant, that is how I wanted to be viewed. I overpromise and overdeliver and I think that I always have done just that. I've always believed in my ability to get the job done my clients and I was always willing to work as late, or sacrifice personal life to get my work completed and satisfy my client." Because of that reason as well as significant support from his clients, Randy set sail on a new voyage called TriMark Solutions. The story of TriMark's present is still developing. 1 full year in business and TriMark has expanded into the Charlotte market, TriMark's internal team has tripled in size and currently TriMark represents approx 40 business entities for internet marketing services.

Personal Interests

In his spare time Randy might actually be found still working for TriMark. Some may say that on very rare occasions Randy can be seen taken his black lab Maggie on a walk around the block. Goins is a competitive golfer that doesn't play often and spends as much time as possible with his very large family of woman. (4 older sisters, 6 neices + 2 babies on the way)
