WorkBetterNow Earns Third Consecutive Power Partner Award and Inc. 5000 Honor
Oct 30, 2026
New York, United States, October 30, 2026 -- WorkBetterNow (WBN), a leading talent partner providing high-performing remote talent to U.S. businesses, has been named a 2026 Power Partner by Inc. for the third consecutive year. The Power Partner award recognizes the top B2B companies that have a proven track record of driving meaningful growth for small and midsize businesses (SMBs).
This award follows another milestone: WBN’s third consecutive year on the Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in the U.S. Nearshore talent has become one of the fastest-growing moves in the SMB playbook. More owners are hiring skilled professionals in Latin America to fill critical roles. But owners are also learning that not all of it is the same, and that there is a real difference between filling a seat and finding the right person for the role and the company.
“What makes this award mean the most is that it comes from our clients,” said Rob Levin, Co-Founder of WorkBetterNow. “They see us as their talent partner, someone invested in helping them build the teams that grow their business. They feel it in the quality of the people we match them with, the process behind every placement, the support that stays in place long after someone starts, and how easy we make the whole thing. That is what earns the trust, and earning it from the people we serve is the best proof we are getting it right.”
The effects are showing up in daily functions. Owners who have worked with WorkBetterNow report higher productivity, easier scaling, and stronger retention. As more businesses experience those results, the shift is picking up speed.
“From the start, WorkBetterNow professionals have been a game-changer for us, fitting right in with our team," said Timothy Driscoll, Director of Dispatch at Dropoff. "Now, we have 24 WBN professionals on board. They’ve been able to pick up new systems swiftly, sometimes even teaching us a thing or two. It’s like they’re part of the company, not just a supplemental workforce. We’ve grown together, and WorkBetterNow has been a key player in this growth.”
"Being honored with the 2026 Power Partner award for the second time tells us the demand for remote talent is real and it is growing," said Andrew Cohen, CEO and Co-Founder. "More businesses are building stronger teams with talented people, and they are seeing the difference in how they operate. This recognition belongs to every WBN Certified Professional and every teammate who shows up for our clients every day."
WBN has become a strategic partner for forward-thinking small and midsize business leaders. Its client experience process helps companies hire quickly, onboard effectively, and keep talent for the long term, which in turn fuels WBN's own growth and its high client referral rate.
Co-founder Rob Levin, a 30-year SMB advocate and serial entrepreneur, has recently published The New Talent Playbook, a field guide for business leaders navigating the new world of work. The book covers actionable strategies for building high-performing teams, with an emphasis on remote culture, AI, and nearshore hiring.
