Small Business of the Year Finalist: Crezent #Managed Marketing

Steve Mader of SouthTowne Motors, Presenting Sponsor; Chris Doane of Crezent #Managed Marketing; and Ginger Jackson Queener of UBS Financial Services, Presenting Sponsor


This week, we continue to introduce you to our finalists for this year's Small Business of the Year Awards coming up August 25, 2016 at The Newnan Centre. Today, meet Crezent #Managed Marketing!

Chamber membership philosophy and involvement: Our involvement regarding Chamber functions and the opportunities to volunteer and serve are major priorities for us. Our philosophy goes beyond simply being an Enhanced Investor. 1) We will continue to "Think Chamber Members First." Our IT support company, accountant, maid service, office supply company, printer, sign company, and financial services provider are but a few of the many Chamber members that we purposefully do business with. 2) We go beyond this concept and "Think Coweta Citizens First"' by hiring local citizens as employees. The nature of our business provides many options to outsource both out of city and out of state/country. We stay local. 3) We also "Think Coweta Students First" by continuing a longtime commitment to work-based training and interning high school students through the Central Educational Center. We also participate in several mentorship programs that benefit Coweta County students.

Community involvement: Chris Doane, founder of Crezent #Managed Marketing, actively volunteers in the development of Cochran Mill Park and most recently was recognized by Mayor Tom Reed, City of Chattahoochee Hills, for contributions to the park. He serves on the board of Friends of Chattahoochee Bend and volunteers in trail development activities at the park as well as marketing activities on behalf of the park. Chris is an active member of the Peachtree City Rotary Club and volunteers in the Chattahoochee River Keeper Sweep the Hooch effort. He organized the Coweta Composite high school mountain bike team and mentorship program, and he has provided nonprofit support, services, sponsorships, and donations to a variety of organizations, including the Carroll County Chamber of Commerce, the Newnan Junior Service League, Meals of Wheels of Coweta, Coweta's Dancing Stars, New Beginnings Store, Coweta Area Trail, Chattahoochee Bend Trail Fund, Fayette's Dancing Stars, Whitewater High School in Fayette County, Team Pedal for Pets Cycling Team, Newnan-Coweta Small Business Showcase, and Communities In Schools of Coweta County.

How Crezent #Managed Marketing differs from competitors: Crezent #Managed Marketing is positioned as an outsource provider of marketing services for businesses that desire a full line of marketing functions without the obligations of hiring a full-time employee. Many of the organizations that Crezent competes against are à la carte and limited in their expertise and menu of services.
