Celebrating the Impact We’re Having Through Our Amazing Clients

As I look back on the year and all that we’ve created as a team, I marvel at the opportunities we have to serve people and make an impact through our amazing clients.

Relationships are our priority and it’s our privilege to work alongside the people behind the brands we create, promote, and amplify around the world. Positioning you for success is always our goal and we are cheering you on as you do more good and dream big dreams for the future. 

Here in the heart of historic Chambersburg, PA, we’ve had a remarkable year at Cross & Crown. From moving to an awesome new creative office space to serving more clients than ever before, we want to take a minute to celebrate some wins and highlight a few exciting projects that we hope will inspire you as you plan for a new year.

Team Highlights

• Lizzie Stoltzfus becomes Project Manager, and while she is new to the role, she’s not new to Cross & Crown. We love it when we can promote from within the family, and we are proud to see Lizzie expanding her skills in this way. She’ll be seeing projects through from start to finish, maintaining thorough client communication and ensuring our projects run smoothly. 
• Bekah Hewitt joined our team as Digital Marketing lead, helping clients achieve maximum reach with online communications and ensuring that the brand assets we create are seen and received by our clients’ target audiences. 
• Shelly Wolff is no stranger to the Cross & Crown family but will move into a new role in the new year. After welcoming her first child in January, she will return to serve as Executive Assistant. Shelly’s institutional knowledge and client expertise will equip her to help us do even more to serve our clients with excellence.  
• Our new home in the historic Professional Arts Building on Penncraft Avenue has proven to be the perfect location for our team, providing lots of natural light and rustic appeal to delight our guests and inspire our creative team.  

Because of our partnership with these amazing clients, Cross & Crown is impacting people around the world. Here is a look at some of our most recent work:

Bloom’d

The Knot Loves This App we built for ios and Android. We helped a major start-up redefine the professional beauty space by creating an app that connects users with mobile salon services such as makeup, hair, and men’s grooming services at any time, day or night. If you can’t squeeze in a trip to the salon, you can use this app to locate and book a pro who will come to you. Bloom’d is now recognized as a top app by wedding site theknot.com.  

Roland Builder

Positioning Custom Home Building for Future Growth. Roland Builder is recognized regionally for its legacy of quality and craftsmanship. They came to us needing a refresh to the brand, an updated website, and help to clarify their capabilities and custom home building process. Take a look at how we are helping this family-owned business bring their clients’ custom home building dreams to life. 

New Valley Bank

Helping a Cutting Edge Bank Disrupt the Banking Space. This brand new Massachusetts based bank is redefining banking from the ground up. We worked with New Valley on website design and custom photography to give their new brand an outstanding online presence. It was a lot of fun to help this client that is truly innovating the entire personal banking experience.
