Fast Slow Motion Achieves 8th Consecutive Appearance on the Inc. 5000 List of America’s Fastest-Growing Private Companies

NEW YORK, Aug. 11, 2026 — For the eighth consecutive year, Fast Slow Motion (FSM) has earned a place on the Inc. 5000, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The annual list provides a data-driven snapshot of the nation’s most successful independent and entrepreneurial businesses. Past honorees include companies such as Microsoft, Meta, Chobani, Oracle and Patagonia.

“Growth isn’t the result of technology alone. It comes from aligning people, processes, data and systems around a clear business strategy,” said John Burdett, CEO and founder of Fast Slow Motion. “For years, we’ve helped clients use platforms like Salesforce and HubSpot as engines for growth by improving the way their businesses operate, automating what matters and creating the visibility leaders need to understand what’s working, make better decisions and continuously improve. As AI transforms what’s possible, technologies like Claude give us new ways to extend that same approach and help clients operate more intelligently, make better decisions and scale with confidence. Being recognized on the Inc. 5000 for the eighth consecutive year reflects the trust our clients place in us and the dedication of our team to delivering lasting business outcomes.”

This year’s Inc. 5000 honorees have demonstrated remarkable growth while driving innovation, creating jobs and helping shape the future of the U.S. economy. Collectively, the companies on this year’s list achieved a median three-year revenue growth rate of 130% and added more than 627,000 jobs over the past three years.

As organizations navigate rapid advances in AI, Fast Slow Motion continues to help clients build scalable businesses by aligning strategy, operations and technology. Through its consulting-led approach, the company helps organizations modernize customer engagement, automate business processes and securely connect AI to the systems, data and workflows that power their operations. Fast Slow Motion delivers these capabilities through its Salesforce, HubSpot and Claude Services, enabling clients to realize measurable business outcomes while preparing for long-term growth.
