Orlando, FL – June 5, 2017 – The Association for Corporate Growth (ACG), an organization dedicated to the support of mid-market corporations, has named ProfitSword as the 2017 SMART Award recipient in recognition of their growth within the hospitality technology industry. Founded in 2001, ProfitSword has experienced double-digit growth annually over the past 12 years and works with nearly 80 different hospitality companies representing 3,000+ hotels and restaurants worldwide.

The Orlando Chapter of the Association for Corporate Growth (ACG Orlando) was formed in 2004, to connect growing businesses in Central Florida with local, national and global capital markets, and to facilitate relationship building between these companies, capital sources and professionals active in corporate finance.

“We are honored, humbled and elated to receive this type of recognition,” says Tili Findley, co-founder and Co-Owner of ProfitSword. “There are countless great companies in the hospitality industry and we count ourselves lucky to have experienced this level of success.” Findley attributes their continued growth to having the right ‘product’ at the right time, a dedicated team committed to excellence, and great partner companies [clients] that shared ProfitSword’s vision.

“We set out to fill a void in the industry – a lack of control over data – and it blossomed into a whole new industry buzz-word – ‘Business Intelligence’,” Findley continues. “the term ‘B.I.’ has taken on many different meanings depending on who you talk to, but in reality, it means having control over your company’s data and knowing what to do with it.”

ProfitSword continues to seek out new opportunities within the hospitality sector, but also in other industries as well. Mike Patton, Co-owner and Findley’s long-time business partner, says, “Every company struggles with data, information, reporting, and business operations. Hospitality doesn’t have the corner on that market. Our solutions simply help companies organize their daily data and information so they can make better informed, ‘intelligent’ decisions to affect their financial performance!”
