Premium Inboxes Core Values

Our core values are the heart and soul of this incredible company. The right person for this role will appreciate each of these values, personally subscribe to them, and understand why each is critical to having a great business.

Competitive Greatness - we strive to become the best version of ourselves. This incorporates a steady competition against ourselves. Day in and day out. We subscribe to the growth mindset.

When the game is on the line, we feel pressure and overall growth pain - we never back down and go for the kill. We are the superheroes in our own movies, especially when everything is on the line.

Extreme Accountability - we admit we are powerless if we blame someone else. We take on responsibilities and full ownership of the outcome. If someone messes up, it’s our fault for counting on them in the first place.

Sometimes our best is not enough - we grow into what is needed to achieve the outcome and beyond. Complaining and excuses will not be tolerated.

Execution Speed - we get things done. We are a speed boat, not a cruise ship - we do things quickly and with high intent.

This does not mean we don’t do things well - we do not tolerate mediocrity, which means we are fast, effective, and create phenomenal results.

We will iterate 3-4 times with feedback loops before most even try once. Sometimes we might look foolish, but we understand the power of feedback and its advantages.
