The Climb to #1

In sports or business, striving to be number one is important.
One of my biggest frustrations is seeing how we’ve become so soft with our children, a society where everyone is a freaking winner. Real life doesn’t work that way. Much to my wife’s dismay, if you ask my 6-year-old about second place, she will [...]


New $5 Million Investment in Boundless

The vision of Boundless Network was conceived more than 10 years ago, with the goal of being #1 within the $20B promotional products industry. The company was launched in 2005, and it’s hard to believe we’re already four years into this. Reflecting on those years, I’m certainly pleased with our progress–but not satisfied.

Surprise! There aren’t 48 hours in a day.

I get asked all the time about how Boundless Network has been able to grow so quickly and bring on so many promotional industry leaders. I thought I’d give my blog readers a peek into how Boundless relates to the top 1% of professionals in our industry. Keep in mind that by top 1%, I [...]


Boundless Acquires Custom Solutions

Last week we announced the acquisition of Custom Solutions, a Texas-based distributor led by Chris Miner. This press release received a tremendous amount of positive feedback—potentially more so than the previous six press releases combined. Naturally, I’m curious as to the cause of this groundswell of comments.
