IRVINE, Calif., Dec. 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- SmartBug Media®—a leading Intelligent Inbound® marketing agency that assists businesses in generating leads, increasing awareness, and building brand loyalty through inbound marketing, digital strategy, design, marketing automation, and public relations—today announced that it has earned spots on Comparably's "Best Company Culture," "Best CEOs," and "Best Companies for Women" lists in the small to mid-size companies categories. Notably, SmartBug® Founder and CEO Ryan Malone ranked 10th on the "Best CEOs'' list. These three new recognitions bring the company's total to 16 Comparably awards earned since 2018.

SmartBug Media earned spots on Comparably’s “Best Company Culture,” “Best CEOs,” and “Best Companies for Women” lists in the small to mid-size companies categories in the last quarter of 2020, bringing the company’s total to 16 Comparably awards earned since 2018. Most notably, SmartBug CEO Ryan Malone was ranked 10th on the "Best CEOs" list, and the agency was ranked 12th on the "Best Companies for Women" list. Malone is particularly proud of the company's inclusion on the "Best Company Culture" list.
SmartBug Media earned spots on Comparably’s “Best Company Culture,” “Best CEOs,” and “Best Companies for Women” lists in the small to mid-size companies categories in the last quarter of 2020, bringing the company’s total to 16 Comparably awards earned since 2018. Most notably, SmartBug CEO Ryan Malone was ranked 10th on the "Best CEOs" list, and the agency was ranked 12th on the "Best Companies for Women" list. Malone is particularly proud of the company's inclusion on the "Best Company Culture" list.

"Comparably awards are especially meaningful to me because they are an expression of employee sentiment, which reflects our values," says Malone. "I'm extremely humbled by the rankings, and proud to provide our employees with a satisfying balance between great work opportunities and the flexibility to spend quality time outside their careers. We invest heavily in programs that foster a positive work culture, and I strongly believe that they result in SmartBug's consistent high-caliber work and solid client relationships."

Since Malone founded SmartBug as an innovative remote model in 2008, the company has experienced sustained growth, expanding to represent more than 140 clients and employ more than 100 full-time employees across 40 states and in several countries. Over the years, SmartBug has developed strong remote processes and best practices, making it resilient and a trusted authority and advisor to other companies navigating the challenges brought on by this year's global pandemic, as well as a better place to work for its employees.

One of these best practices is an initiative called Healthy SmartBug, which ensures the company is "happy, healthy, safe, and resilient." Malone conducts one-on-one SmartBug Connect calls with every employee to find out, from their perspective, how to make SmartBug healthier. Healthy SmartBug conversations have produced hundreds of ideas for the leadership team to consider, prioritize, and ultimately roll out in order to improve the health of the company.

"I've learned that business leaders should look at their company and their employees in the same way they would a family that they need to protect, nurture, and develop," explains Malone. "Healthy SmartBug aims to do this by empowering our employees from the bottom up to solve real challenges, becoming invested and ultimately having a positive impact on our company."

SmartBug ranked 12th on the "Best Companies for Women" list for small to mid-sized companies. Women make up 68 percent of the employees at the agency, while 67 percent of those employed by SmartBug at the manager level and above are women.

"The Best Companies for Women understand the importance of providing an inclusive environment of diverse voices," said Comparably CEO Jason Nazar. "Female employees rated Smartbug as one of the best places to work in 2020, commending the company's strong leadership in Ryan Malone and progressive all-remote work culture."

Comparably Awards are derived from sentiment ratings provided by employees who anonymously rate their employers on Comparably.com during a 12-month period. There are no fees or costs associated with participating, nor is nomination required. The final data set was compiled from 10 million ratings across 60,000 U.S. companies.

SmartBug's recognition by Comparably follows recent announcements that it was named to the prestigious Inc. 5000 list of the fastest growing private companies in America for the fourth year in a row and that it was also recently named to the Adweek 100: Fastest Growing list for the second consecutive year. The company has also earned hundreds of Marcom Awards.
