FOR MANY ENTREPRE-
NEURS, owning their own business is
a dream come true. Growing and
making that business successful is
another story—one that requires hard
work, dedication, innovation and
CEOs who are willing to dust them-
selves off and keep going when the
economy takes a dip or two.
Late last year,
Inc.
magazine
released its eighth annual
Inc.
5000 list
of the country’s fastest-growing
private companies and a number of
promotional products businesses were
included.
PPB
magazine spoke with nine of
the industry companies to learn what
contributes to their growth, what sets
them apart and what fuels their
success. If there is one thing each of
these businesses has in common, it is a
focus on superior customer service—
a characteristic most frequently lauded
as a company’s most important
resource.
