Kelley Connect, founded as Kelley Business Machines in 1974, is changing its name. Kelley Connect is now Kelley Create. There’s no change in ownership with this rename.
“We are finding more and more that creativity is driving our business,” said Kelley Create CEO Aric Manion. “We use creative thinking every day. Whether it’s smarter IT solutions, how we collaborate to bring more innovative document and sending solutions to help our customers grow their businesses, or even how we approach our events. It’s become important to me. Creativity drives victories. I wanted the next phase of our growth to be driven by it.”
Kelley Create is celebrating 50 years of helping businesses, large and small, across the Pacific Northwest grow their companies with strategic business solutions and reach their customers in creative ways.
“We’re proud of what we’ve accomplished,” said Manion. “We look forward to building on our successes and to continuing our growth.”
2023 was Kelley Create’s biggest year. “I’m excited for this next phase for Kelley Create and how we can use creativity to provide exponentially more strategic business solutions for our customers,” Manion continues. “Everyone on the team is committed to our mission and serving our customers. Technology is moving fast. I’m glad we are, too.”
