Inc. 5000: Stay Humble, Keep Growing

We announced some pretty exciting news earlier this week after making the Inc. 5000 List of Fastest Growing Companies for the second year in a row. It’s a great accomplishment for our team, not only to make the list, but to make it twice in a row — something only one in every three companies do after making the list initially.

When asked how our company is able to sustain the growth, maintain a great culture, and still keep clients happy, I wish I had something revolutionary to say. Many companies on the list cite implementing radical growth strategies or launching new products. But for 522, staying humble and always improving on what we do best has been the key to our growth.

Honestly, we’re able to grow is due to the awesome relationships that we build with our clients. We take pride in establishing a foundation of trust. We become an extension of their team and passionately support their success. And, yes… we deliver high-quality and effective video content for their needs. Our growth also comes from our employees, who know the value of good ol’ fashioned hard work. Their strength in building trust and developing lifelong relationships with our clients has continued to drive customers to reach out again and again. We’re proud of that, but we find it a bit out of character to shout it off the rooftops… irony of this blog post aside.

All-in-all, being on the Inc. 5000 list is cool, but having customers for life is an honor.

Every year Inc. 5000 compiles a list to rank the country’s top 5000 fastest-growing private companies. The 2017 Inc. 5000 list was released, and guess what? We made the cut. That’s right, 522 Productions is one of fastest growing private companies in the country!

It truly is an honor to be included on this list, and we couldn’t have done it without our staff, network, and of course, our clients. Thanks to our clients we are able to do what we love every day. Being trusted to tell their stories through our lenses is an honor all in itself, but we aren’t finished growing yet. We want to help more companies utilize video and we believe every organization deserves great video. Whether it’s an about us video, product demonstration, corporate or anything else you can think of, let us create it with you.

We’d like to thank the Inc. 5000 for including us on this year’s list among other notable companies, including Halo Top Creamery, Orangetheory Fitness, S’well, and Bitly.

A Window into TAPS – Discovering a Group that Supports Survivors of Fallen Soldiers

One of the best parts about our work is that it gives us the chance to learn every single day. We learn how to use new technology, how to connect with people and, when we’re lucky, we get to discover how our clients impact the world.

Recently, we had a chance to learn about the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS) when SAIC, a Fortune 500 company located in Virginia, approached us to tell the group’s story. Founded in 1994, TAPS has connected over 40,000 surviving family members, caregivers and casualty officers with crucial resources to help them heal and find meaning in their lives again. We didn’t think twice about taking on the project—we were honored to be asked to convey how TAPS supports “ANYONE who has suffered the loss of a military loved one.” Continue reading “A Window into TAPS – Discovering a Group that Supports Survivors of Fallen Soldiers”
