Our Story

CCB Marketing founders, Brian and Fran Boyd, are changing the digital marketing arena with their boutique company’s unique approach of pairing custom-fit marketing strategies with a relational foundation. Brian and Fran have used their background in communications and technology to craft a portfolio of creative strategies, consistent results, and brand excellence for each of the companies they work with.

CCB Marketing origins are anchored in a pivotal time in history. 

  • 2000 - 2001
Newly transplanted to New York in 2000, Brian and Fran found themselves jobless and homeless in the wake of 9/11. Living in a hotel room with their two children, they pulled out their Rolodex and went to work. Leaving Silicon Alley and salon management behind, they launched their own IT project management company utilizing Fran’s keen eye for big-picture strategy and Brian’s innate tech ability.

  • 2007
The company pivoted in 2007 when Brian began tracking the new social networking trends. They wanted to help their clients to reach a new global audience via the internet. Media Connect Partners was born. Media Connect Partners, a multinational marketing agency, built out social media platforms for well-known companies and non-profits over the next decade. Their clients included Hobby Lobby, Rodale Publishing, Joel Osteen, and T.D. Jakes. As MCP’s client list grew on a global scale, their team of 60 employees and contractors spanned the U.S., India, South Africa, and Dubai.

In 2017, Brian and Fran sold MCP, deciding it was time for another pivot.

 

CCB Marketing was launched with the vision of using hands-on marketing strategies and relationship-building to create authentic connections for each client’s digital audience. Brian, Fran, and their team of experts work with companies and non-profits to develop a marketing vision, connect them with like-minded partners, and build out their impact in the marketplace.
