About Chris Craven

I am a management-level marketing and account management professional who innovates creative branding, activation, promotions, and event solutions that move retail sales and delight the target audience. With 15+ years of marketing success, an MBA in Sports Management and Certificate in Social Media, I have the ability to structure and drive integrated brand marketing and activation campaigns, execute best-in-class branded programs, and conceptualize traditional, digital, and social campaigns from start to finish. I deeply understand the sponsorship landscape, and have experience with properties including the NFL, NASCAR, NBA, MLL, and NCAA member institutions. The added value I bring to the table is my collaborative approach when partnering with clients and stakeholders. I am energized by a positive, team-oriented work environment.
