VIRGINIA BEACH, VA, Aug. 24, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Internet marketing agency Customer Magnetism (www.customermagnetism.com) announced today that it has been named to the 2011 Inc. 500|5000 List of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies. Customer Magnetism debuted at #2376 on the overall list and ranked at #229 on the Advertising & Marketing industry list.
"Out of nearly 7 million employer-based private companies, it’s nice to see us rank this high," states Kurt Noer, Founder and CEO of Customer Magnetism. "Of course, it’s even more important to us that so many of our clients experienced profitable growth last year!"
Customer Magnetism’s own strong growth is the pivotal reason for its appearance on the Inc. 500|5000. The list’s main ranking criterion is the percentage of annual revenue increase between 2007 and 2010, a period of time that proved tough for many American businesses due to the recession. Customer Magnetism, however, remained resilient by expanding their service offerings and focusing on client needs, an approach that continues to draw in customers.
"When you exhibit 101% growth over such a short span of time, people take notice, including Inc. magazine," remarks Aaron Leslie, President of Customer Magnetism. "Now we’re focused on moving the company and our clients to new levels of success."
