MADISON, Wis. - Aug. 12, 2020 -Inc. magazine today revealed that FarWell is No. 2606 on its annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. This is FarWell's fourth year receiving the award, a feat shared by only one in thirteen of companies that have applied over the years. The list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy's most dynamic segment—its independent small businesses. Intuit, Zappos, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.
Jason Potter, FarWell CEO, states, "We are thrilled to have earned a spot on the Inc. 5000 list with so many other innovative, successful companies. At our core, FarWell is a team of humble, collaborative advisors who love solving problems, accomplishing ambitious goals, and delivering meaningful client experiences.

Each of these values foster trust, which lies at the heart of our culture."
Not only have the companies on the 2020 Inc. 5000 been very competitive within their markets, but the list as a whole shows staggering growth compared with prior lists as well. The 2020 Inc. 5000 achieved an incredible three-year average growth of over 500 percent, and a median rate of 165 percent. The Inc. 5000's aggregate revenue was $209 billion in 2019, accounting for over 1 million jobs over the past three years.
