OUR HISTORY
Our first office was in an unfinished basement with a cheap IKEA desk and a baby blue office chair with an ink stain on it. The phone had a cord. A CORD!!This was August of 2000 - about one month before the Sydney Olympic Games. Company founder, Krista Benoit, had just quit her job as Director of Marketing and Events for a national sport organization in Ottawa to start her own firm. The company had no name, but it did have two clients (and a fax machine). Sounds crazy, right?Not really.Krista has entrepreneurship in her DNA. She is a Sports Administration (SPAD) grad from Laurentian University who enthusiastically began her career on the bottom rung of the pro sport ladder in 1993.
A few years later (and a few business cards later), Krista was determined to infuse her unapologetic energy and drive into new adventures. Her newfound status as a ‘solopreneur’ (only seven years after graduation) came as no surprise.Fast forward several years …. the company got a name, Krista got a second degree (a BA in French), the office set-up got a little more stylish, technology improved, and the firm swiftly grew into a successful boutique events and marketing agency with a bubbly personality and a reputation for getting sh*t done.
OURTEAM
Krista manages a lively gang of like-minded event and marketing professionals known as the ‘A’ team who work tirelessly to deliver exceptional results (and have lots of fun doing it).
