CRN Fast Growth 2008What does it take to grow a solution provider business in today's moribund economy? For many of the 2008 CRN Fast Growth companies, success comes from aiding other business in dealing with that very same moribund economy: "In years of economic slowdowns... companies typically look to streamline operations, reduce costs and increase efficiencies. They also look to solution providers to help them achieve those goals." And while customer focus is essential, it's also important to keep an eye on your own operations: "Smart, fast growth means balancing risk-taking with the core competencies that got your company where it is, said Brady Kavulic, a marketing manager at Intelligent Decisions, a systems integrator and IT service provider... Kavulic says the ratio of investment in existing business and technologies to exposure in new potential growth areas is roughly 70 to 30 at Intelligent Decisions." Our complete Fast Growth report includes the complete Fast Growth list, profiles of the fastest growers, and an advanced search tool for our Fast Growth Databank.
