The PROFIT 100 list has always been your roadmap to Canada’s new economy: the companies and industries that are actually growing fastest and strongest. (And of course the list is actually 200 companies long, not just 100). Many people use the list to better understand where the economy of tomorrow is headed; and of course other people use it as a great source of prospects, or a list of companies that are always hiring.
Trends this year:
· The No. 1 company is Allegro Mobile Solutions of Mississauga, Ont., which develops software for mobile business applications and devices. With 2008 sales of $17.7 million, it has enjoyed five-year sales growth of 8,741%.
· Average 5-year growth rate of the top 100 firms is 2,262%. Even the 100th-ranked company (IntelliNet Technologies Inc. of Richmond, BC) grew by 899%.
· 76% of PROFIT 100 firms made a profit in 2008.
· 73% of PROFIT 100 firms are exporters.
· Research in Motion breaks a PROFIT 100 record by qualifying for this list for the ninth time. (Few companies ever make it more than twice.)

Internet made easy to express emotions no matter how it is far. To maintain great family bonding and traditions, Internet is helping in a great way.
Quote of the Day is :- "A customer is the most important visitor on our premises, he is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work. He is the purpose of it. He is not an outsider in our business. He is part of it. We are not doing him a favor by serving him. He is doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so."

We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work. He is the purpose of it. He is not an outsider in our business. He is part of it. We are not doing him a favor by serving him. He is doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so.
