7 Reasons You’ll Love Working Here
#1 Stability
We've been in business since 2003 and have gone through many of the 'rough patches' already. We are now a very strong and healthy company and aren't going anywhere for a very long time. In 2011 we were awarded a spot in the Inc 500/5000 coming in at #595.
#2. Opportunity
Unlike most companies that want to keep your pay as low as they can, we do the opposite! Our goal is to pay you as much as we possibly can because when we do, we know that means you are creating tremendous value for our customers and our business. We only want A-level superstars so we offer above average compensation as well as company and performance-based bonuses.
#3. Flexibility
Location doesn't matter to us. I don't care if you're working on the beach, your kitchen, or in your backyard. As long as you have fast, reliable internet and a quiet, distraction free working space that will do just fine.
#4. Freedom
We believe that all people deserve to be free... free to make their own choices... free to create their own success... and we strive to create a work environment that not only allows but empowers you to be creative and take risks (well thought out of course).
No company politics or popularity contests. We are a team of 'producers'... people who are results oriented and believe that each person should be responsible for themselves.
#5. Great People
You'd be joining an existing team of superstars, many of whom have been with the company for years. There is virtually no “drama” within the team like most companies have. Everyone here is fun, passionate, great at what they do, and willing to help out. If you're that kind of person – you'll fit in perfectly.
#6. Training and Education
We invest heavily in our knowledge and skills. As part of our team you'll have access to an enormous library of 'how to' and 'self improvement' books and courses and we also reimburse our team when they invest in continued education.
#7. Growth
We are growing at warp speed and have continued to increase profits year after year. This growth also means growth for you... in knowledge, skills, relationships and income.
