Volume 2, Issue 9 - September 2007
I have some exciting news to pass along this month. InSys Consulting made it to Inc. magazine's list of the 5,000 fastest growing companies in
America. It's the first year for this, and it's an expansion of Inc.'s long-standing top 500 list. If you're interested, you can read more about it here. The ranking is based on revenue growth over the past three years, and InSys came in
at 1,636, thanks to our impressive growth of 219% in that period. Not bad!
I think we've done so well because of our commitment to customer satisfaction, and our ability to deliver. In the end, though, the credit goes largely to
the effort of our individual consultants. If they weren't out there doing good work, people wouldn't keep asking us to come back!
So thanks to our technical resources, our recruiters, our account management team and the operations
folks who keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes. Onward and upward for an even better listing next year.
Until next time!
