The Center for Sales Strategy Ranks Among Highest-Scoring Businesses on Inc.’s Annual List of Best Workplaces for 2024

(June 18, 2024) — The Center for Sales Strategy (CSS) has been named to Inc.’s annual Best Workplaces list. Prominently featured on Inc.com, the list is the result of a comprehensive measurement of American companies that have excelled in creating exceptional workplaces and company cultures, whether operating in a physical or a virtual facility.

CSS is a leading organization with 40 years of helping businesses achieve total revenue performance through sales strategy and talent development (CSS), B2B marketing and sales enablement (LeadG2), company culture and employee engagement (Up Your Culture), and executive coaching and career transition (Robertson Lowstuter).

After collecting data from thousands of submissions, Inc. selected 543 honorees this year. Each company that was nominated took part in an employee survey, conducted by Quantum Workplace, which included topics such as management effectiveness, perks, fostering employee growth, and overall company culture. The organization’s benefits were also audited to determine overall score and ranking.

“We are thrilled and honored to receive the distinction of being named a 2024 Inc. Best Workplaces honoree. At CSS, we hold company culture in high regard, and this commitment is evident in our daily operations. Our tangible achievements for clients, coupled with robust internal communication and team unity, emphasize this dedication,” stated Matt Sunshine, CEO of CSS and its portfolio of brands.

“This recognition validates our commitment to our core values, which permeate every aspect of our work. By embedding these principles into our operations, we not only enhance our own work environment but also assist other organizations in fostering culture, talent development, growth, and employee engagement using the successful strategies we have implemented within our organization.”

“Each year, Inc.’s Best Workplaces program recognizes the very best in terms of companies that have fostered a truly amazing culture,” says Inc. editor-in-chief Mike Hofman. “We use hard metrics and data as well as qualitative measures for judging in order to find the very best—and we’re proud that the program is highly selective.”

"We've worked with LeadG2 since 2015 and will continue working with them...no end in sight. Not only are they positive, inspiring, responsive and fun to work with, they have transformed our business. We consider them partners and trusted advisors. They help us with our complete inbound marketing strategy from beginning to end, and since starting, we have tracked and attributed well over a million dollars in new revenue and have blown past all our key success metrics. We recommend LeadG2 to anyone... except our competition. "

Inbound Marketing Consultant

"The Up Your Culture program was pretty much perfect and aligned with our needs. All the feedback from our leaders has been wonderful. I wish I had this type of structure when I led a market. I did it on my own and didn’t have a road map. Being given a roadmap but being able to customize it to the needs of each market, like Up Your Culture does, is extremely valuable. "
