3BL Media

3BL Media operates a digital media and content distribution platform focused on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) communications. Founded in 2009 by Greg Schneider, Cindy Schneider, Doug Fulton, and John Howell, the company provides tools and services for organizations to share their corporate social responsibility (CSR) and sustainability initiatives with a global audience. This audience includes investors, media, corporate leaders, and consumers.

The company's business model is centered on a cloud-based, software-as-a-service (SaaS) subscription platform. Clients, which range from large corporations to non-profits, use 3BL's distribution network to amplify their purpose-driven messages. The platform distributes various forms of content, including news, reports, and videos, through strategic placements, global syndication, and curated channels to ensure it reaches financial decision-makers and major media outlets. Revenue is generated through these subscriptions and content creation services offered via its Brand Studio and the editorial team at TriplePundit, a digital media publication acquired by 3BL Media.

Over the years, 3BL Media has expanded its services and reach, partly through acquisitions like Justmeans in 2011, which enhanced its technical analysis and reader engagement tracking capabilities. The company helps clients improve their disclosure scores and stakeholder trust by providing strategic guidance, performance tracking with real-time analytics, and custom reporting. Headquartered in Northampton, Massachusetts, the company also has a presence in the UK and serves over 1,500 brands.
