Inc. magazine’s list of the fastest-growing private companies in the U.S. was released today, with Aspire Software as No. 1907—39 points higher than last year's ranking of No. 1946. As the 255th fastest-growing software company on the list, Aspire’s three-year growth rate of 234% propelled it forward amid other contenders across the country. This is the third year for Aspire to receive a ranking on an Inc. 5000 list, which includes the most successful small businesses in the nation. Familiar brands such as Intuit, Zappos, Under Armour, Microsoft, Patagonia, and many others gained their first national exposure as honorees on the Inc. 5000.

“We’re honored to be included on the Inc. 5000 list again,” says Aspire Software CEO Mark Tipton. “This has been a big year for Aspire as we continue to seek new and innovative ways to transform our customers’ lives with comprehensive business management software. With the continued support of our incredible team, I can’t wait to see where we go next.”

Aspire Software is a St. Louis-based provider of business management software designed for companies in the lawn, landscape, and snow and ice removal industries. Its flagship product—Aspire—allows contractors to gain full visibility into their businesses, make more informed decisions, and increase their profit margins. Crew Control, the company’s newest offering, is designed to help smaller, residential lawn care and landscaping companies eliminate the hassles and headaches of crew scheduling.

In 2021, Aspire introduced a new software application (Aspire Crew Control), released major updates to Aspire Landscape’s user interface, re-launched its annual client conference as Aspire IGNITE!, and announced plans to be acquired by Los Angeles-based software provider ServiceTitan. The company’s exceptional growth over the past nine years has been bolstered by a culture of teamwork, service, and innovation. The success of these values is demonstrated by recent awards and recognition—including the Inc. 5000 rating.

Complete results of the Inc. 5000, including company profiles and an interactive database that can be sorted by industry, region, and other criteria, can be found at www.inc.com/inc5000. The top 500 companies are also being featured in the September issue of Inc., available on newsstands August 18.
