Andrew Field of PrintingForLess.com in Livingston, Montana named a Best Boss 2005 – Fortune Magazine Announces 2005 List of Best Bosses

Fortune Small Business magazine has
named PrintingForLess.com http://www.PrintingForLess.com president Andrew Field on its 2005 list of Best
Bosses, which recognizes entrepreneurs who are particularly well-rounded,
with the vision, creativity, focus, and great people skills to get the
best out of their employees.

Andrew was one of 15 winners announced at a
conference and celebration in Chicago on Sept. 20 for the third annual
Best Bosses competition, sponsored by FSB in collaboration with Winning
Workplaces, a non-profit organization that helps small businesses create
successful workplace practices.

A list and profiles of the winners appear
in the October issue of FSB, and at http://www.FSB.com.

Managing the Gen Y workers flooding the job market is a key part of
Field’s and his fellow winners’ success. These leaders have created
business practices that treat twenty-somethings more like consumers than
employees, going beyond simply dispensing a laundry list of benefits and
fun perks to ensure their entire workplace culture fits the needs of
their employees.

“You get back more than you put in,” says Best Boss and
PrintingForLess.com founder Andrew Field. “We have designed our workplace
to invest in and empower our employees to do their best work.

In return,
we get happy, committed employees and a high-performing culture that
leads to loyal customers and faster growth.”

This year’s Best Bosses had to meet a high bar to prove themselves
winners. FSB and its partner, Winning Workplaces, expanded the judging
criteria to evaluate employee satisfaction, investment in workers and
benefits such as medical insurance and retirement plans. They also
conducted a 360-degree performance review by talking with customers,
advisors, board members, investors, and randomly selected employees about
the nominee’s management style and philosophy.

“What’s most heartening is
to see leaders from a wide range of industries and from across the
country all find ways to create workplaces where employees are gratified
and rewarded, and the businesses and the employees both benefit,” says
Kenneth Lehman, chairman of Winning Workplaces.

PrintingForLess.com, http://www.PrintingForLess.com based in Livingston, Montana, is the leading online
commercial printing company with more than 40,000 customers throughout
the United States.

With Andrew at the helm, PrintingForLess.com
revolutionized the industry by providing instant online pricing and
ordering, unmatched technical and customer support, and high quality
four-color marketing materials such as brochures, post cards, stationery
and catalogs. "No leader can produce results on his own,” says Field.
“The congratulations for the Best Bosses honor go to everyone in the
company for making PrintingForLess.com a great place to work and buy printing.”
