AUSTIN, Texas, Oct. 7, 2008 — Boundless Network (http://www.boundlessnetwork.com/), a technology-enabled promotional marketing distributor, announced today that it has been named one of the best places to work in the ad specialty industry.

Boundless Network was ranked the No. 6 best place to work by Counselor, the flagship magazine of the Advertising Specialty Institute(R) (ASI). The company bested more than 20,000 distributor firms and 3,500 supplier firms that comprise the promotional products industry.

“Our culture and passion for changing this $20 billion industry is the secret sauce behind Boundless Network’s success,” said CEO Jason Black. “We have a committed team that brings their ‘A game’ each and every day. The combination of our people and technology platform makes Boundless the industry’s best place to work. I firmly believe our business model is unmatched within the promotional products industry.”

Boundless Network employees rated the company more than 90 percent positive in almost every category and scored trust in senior leadership at 97 percent. Respondents rated their experience across 10 different areas: team effectiveness, retention, alignment with goals, trust with coworkers, individual contribution, manager effectiveness, trust in senior leaders, feeling valued, satisfaction with current role and people practices. Since the founding of the company in 2005, Boundless has maintained a greater than 95 percent retention rate.

“Boundless Network has been an incredible place to be both personally and professionally,” said Austin managing director Noel Garcia. “The company has built an outstanding culture and a business model that has enabled me to both grow my business by nearly 300 percent and spend more time with my three girls. In today’s world it is hard to find a company where you can make a great living and still feel good about the time you spend with your family. It’s the type of balance I have been looking for.”

The magazine highlighted interaction between Boundless Network management and employees to create a loyal workforce. “It sounds simple, but how many organizations actually listen to their employees? Not enough,” wrote Editor Andy Cohen in Counselor Magazine. “Well, count Boundless Network in the minority of companies that want to listen to their growing ranks of employees — and do so often.”

Black emphasized that surveys are nothing new at Boundless Network. “We survey our team each quarter to identify areas of improvement. This process ensures that Boundless maintains its leadership position as the leading promotional products distributorship for both sales professionals and customers.”

ASI recently awarded Black a spot on its 2008 Counselor Magazine HOT List, based on his ability to introduce new trends and initiatives to the industry, including unique products and advanced technological approaches.

Boundless Network employs more than 180 people in 15 regional offices located across the US. The company has recruited more than 100 leading sales professionals to join the company and plans to continue partnering with sales professionals and distributorships in key regions throughout the country.
