About Frey Media

Founded 25 years ago in Hilton Head, SC by media entrepreneur Marc Frey, the company started out with a single publication Golfer’s Guide, a visitor oriented magazine. Over time it grew into a multi-regional network of 26 publications across North America reaching 3 million golf enthusiasts annually making it the third largest golf publication in the USA. The company took advantage of the changing technology trends and implemented a strong web presence, selling discounted tee times on an e-commerce platform and offering web and e-newsletter services to its 1,000 + clients. During the 2007- 2009 years and following the golf industry was hit hard fighting declining participation and eroding pricing. The Golfer’s Guide network was sold off in pieces and the company eventually dissolved. Parallel to the national expansion FM bought a small newsprint magazine MONTHLY which traditionally served the needs of primary and secondary homeowners in Hilton Head. The company quadrupled its sales over the years and today serves as the premier city magazine for Hilton Head and Bluffton reaching over 100,000 readers a month on its multimedia platform. In the last 5 years, an expansion in the visitor publication segment brought along Fork&Fun, a menu oriented restaurant guide, and the Vacation Guide. Combined with its recent launch of ShopMoreLocal.org and 2 successful events, Frey Media has grown from a single employee office into the largest local media company in the Lowcountry employing a team of 15 dedicated professionals and a network of contributing writers, photographers, graphic artists, and professionals. Steeped in tradition and with a vision toward expansion the company is well positioned for the future.
