Online Retailer Leaps Over 300 Spots to place #3197 on the 2014 Inc. 5000<\/em><\/strong><\/h1>\n

<\/p>\n

Sarasota, FL, August 2st, 2014 \u2014 JMX Brands, parent company to DutchCrafters.com, the world\u2019s largest web-only retailer of Amish Furniture and home goods, re-entered the prestigious Inc. 5000 in grand fashion after a year\u2019s hiatus. In what Inc. Magazine called the most \u201ccompetitive crop in the list\u2019s history,\u201d JMX Brands prospered in the $8.4 billion retail category, jostling with almost 200 worthy participants.<\/p>\n

The 33rd annual Inc. 500|5000 is an exclusive ranking of the nation’s fastest-growing private companies. The list represents the most comprehensive look at the most important segment of the economy\u2014America\u2019s independent entrepreneurs. Companies such as Yelp, Pandora, Timberland, Dell, Domino\u2019s Pizza, LinkedIn, Zillow, and many other well-known names gained early exposure as members of the Inc. 500|5000.<\/p>\n

Boasting 109% revenue growth year-over-year for 2013 (just under the retail industry as a whole, at 139%) and almost doubling its staff, JMX Brands leaves its 2012 ranking at #3,548 behind, along with some of the outmoded strategies that encumbered the company two years ago. Back in 2012, changes to Google\u2019s algorithm prompted an overarching shift in JMX Brands\u2019 approach to Internet marketing, and a return to the fundamental concepts central to entrepreneurial success. Explains CEO Jim Miller:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe saw that we lost our focus for awhile, and that we were concentrating on pleasing Google instead of creating customer-oriented content and making website advances that would be of use to the consumer. As soon as we shifted back to asking ourselves what made our products, our company, and our website so appealing in the first place, we gained momentum almost immediately.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As 2014 moves into its last quarter, the JMX Brands\u2019 strategy shifts are clearly working, and their focus on customer alignment and website optimization are being well-received. Impressive showings in key rankings \u2014 like the #3197 placement in Inc. 5000 this week and #926 in the Internet Retailer 2nd<\/sup> 500 last month \u2013 strongly suggest a company on the move and not stopping anytime soon.<\/p>\n
