Who is your greatest
industry inspiration
and why?
Jon Darrohn
President
AIA/Logo Concepts
My greatest industry inspiration
is my father, Randy Darrohn. He
started our company 17 years
ago and I learned from watching
him always be able to pull a rabbit
out of a hat for clients. He is very
creative and has the ability to
think outside the box and all of his
clients love working with him. And
he doesn’t take no for an answer.
This year I took over the company
he started but he’s still working in
the business and I look forward to
growing the company based on the
solid principles he built it on.
Carrie Sabo, MAS
Midwest Sales Manager
American Ad Bag
I have really benefited from
attending the Women’s Leadership
Conference and gaining invaluable
perspective from these lovely ladies!
They have motivated and inspired
me in ways I cannot even describe.
I know if I ever have a question,
concern or just want to talk, I could
contact any one of these ladies
and they would be there for me.
I cannot forget Fran Ford, either.
Everyone has benefited from Fran’s
knowledge in this industry. What a
great asset he is, and I am lucky to
call him a friend.
Alyssa Andrews
Sales & PR Team
Fairytale Brownies
For me, personally, I would have
to say Rick Carlson from Aloe Up
Suncare Products. He always has
a smile, a hug, and kind, positive
words. He is at every show we
attend, and he inspires me to be
genuine like he is.
Debbie Abergel
Sr. Vice-President/Partner
Jack Nadel International
Someone who inspires
me is a person who brings
the best out in those around
them. The person who does
that for me is Craig Nadel.
He leads with purpose—you
never doubt his intentions.
He is committed, dedicated
and decisive. I feel so lucky
to have him as a friend and
mentor. His faith in me has
motivated me to accomplish
things that still surprise me.
