Ingredients for a Best Place to Work: Image Source (asi/230121) is one of only two companies to appear 13 times on Counselor’s Best Places to Work – every year the list has been in existence. There’s a simple reason: great people. “The promotional marketing industry is fun, and our team reflects that,” says Marketing Coordinator Kaley DeWeese. “We’re a family that not only enjoys working together, but also celebrating team wins and spending time together.”

DeWeese says Image Source is comprised of “fun, out-of-the-box thinkers” who live up to the company’s numerous core values, which range from embracing individuality to inspiring people to “Make Mama Proud” by doing the right thing. “Our Image Source Core Values are a big part of our company’s culture,” says DeWeese, “and our team strives to meet and exceed these each day.”

Top Benefits & Perks: Where to start? How about the company’s annual weekend trip to Lake Chelan during the summer when it hits its company goals. Image Source has multiple councils that promote DEI, community service and team bonding. The distributor’s Culture Club, for instance, plans monthly birthday parties, holiday celebrations, outdoor BBQs, food truck visits, local sports outings and paint nights, among other things. “March Swagness,” Spirit Week and Champagne Thursday are some past notable fun events at the company. In addition, the Community Corp facilitates donations and volunteer opportunities, and the company provides one paid day off per year for employees who use the time to give back to the community. Image Source also offers a hybrid work model where all non-remote team members are in the office 2 to 3 days per week. Various in-person events bring the team into the office to build camaraderie and face-to-face interactions.
