(PRESS RELEASE) GRAND HAVEN, MI — Inc., the leading media brand for entrepreneurs and business leaders, announced WhizBang! Retail Training has been named to its third annual Power Partner Awards. The prestigious list honors B2B organizations across the country that have proven track records supporting entrepreneurs and helping their businesses grow.
WhizBang! Retail Training is honored along with 358 other US companies and is 1 of only 7 organizations in Michigan to be recognized.
“This is our definitive listing of vendors and suppliers who have demonstrated excellence in serving small- and midsize businesses,” says Inc. editor in chief, Mike Hofman. “As part of the vetting process, our team of editors, researchers and reporters gathered information on companies’ products and services, assessed their reputation as captured in online comments and forums, and collected customer testimonials.” Using this data, Inc. applied a proprietary algorithm that determined the exceptional companies that are the 2024 Inc. Power Partners.
“We are thrilled, of course, to be selected for the 2024 Power Partners Award,” says WhizBang! Retail Training co-founder, Bob Negen. “Independent retail stores are the heart and soul of their communities, the lifeblood of their local economies, and we work hard every day to help them grow and succeed. Everything we do is for them. I’m very proud to be their Power Partner.”
WhizBang! Retail Training is recognized in the Inc. Power Partner list’s “Small And Mighty” category, highlighting businesses that thrive at powering other businesses, often without the resources of their larger peers or competitors. These are the companies that have done the most with the least. “‘Small And Mighty’ is a fitting category,” says Negen, “because it describes our company AND the indie retail clients we work for.”
