Today’s monumental announcement opens a new chapter in the history of Firm Media. Founder, President, and newly-minted Chief Strategist, Chris Suchánek, has been at the helm for 17 years. In that time, he and a talented team have built a multimillion dollar agency, earned countless awards and other accolades, and created over $100 million in returns for their clients’ trusted investments.
Now, he takes a new step so that he can deliver his industry-leading insights to our clients in greater detail and open new doors through public speaking and other educational endeavors. As he does so, he offered me the appointment to Chief Executive Officer and take up that mantle. I humbly accepted the opportunity.
My career has touched all three sides of the marketing industry: agency, media, and client. I have managed eight-figure marketing budgets, worked with Fortune 500 brands, consulted clients around the world, and refined a unique specialization in regulated industries such as law, automotive, higher education, and healthcare. I am also a serial entrepreneur having founded or been a part of leadership for 10 other ventures, including two other currently active businesses.
It is my honor to become the next CEO of this enterprise. I began consulting Firm Media last year at the request of company management to identify hindrances to future growth and chart new products and processes that could help them succeed. The team and results immediately impressed me; showing great opportunities in their future if they were open to new possibilities and a simultaneous revisit of fundamental best practices. Most importantly, I discovered that the clients who often saw the greatest results were those who invested the most trust in Firm Media’s stewardship. This showed me a clear path forward.
As CEO, my goals are to deepen the relationships we have with our clients, empower our skilled specialists, and drive an array of products and services that exceed the standards of our industry. I look forward to announcing some of those initiatives in the very near future.
Whether you are a client, employee, vendor, or strategic partner of ours, I look forward to working with you in this new era. Our greatest days are ahead of us and I am inviting you to discover what’s next for your success. It awaits at Firm Media.
