Is it cutting-edge products? Brilliant service? Ingenious branding? Donna Fenn, a twenty-year veteran of Inc. magazine, has discovered the people who have the answers.

These men and women share their solutions and insights on how to rise to the top, despite multiple competitors, from Chinese manufacturers to Wal-Mart.

He's done it by seeking out new markets and perfecting the art of customer service.

With twelve Amy's Ice Creams stores in Austin, Amy's is the Austin hometown favorite, despite her deep-pocketed rivals, Ben & Jerry's and Cold Stone Creamery.
