Jen Malloy
Owner & Client Relations
Welcome! I’m Jen, the owner and the client relations manager for C&C. We opened our doors in 2016 with the goal to provide the best possible service, accountability, and truthfulness to senior housing organizations looking for turn-key marketing, advertising, and public relations support.
Since 2006, I’ve worked in senior living, beginning at Brookdale as their Corporate Director of Marketing and Creative Services, and then at Sagora as their Corporate Director of Marketing and Advertising. I know firsthand what it’s like to work with an outside agency, and I’ve remained committed to ensure Craft & Communicate is the absolute best at both service and at making our clients’ lives easier in this industry.
Over the past 5 years, we’ve grown from supporting 6 communities to over 80 communities all across the United States. We currently serve 9 senior housing companies for all of their marketing and public relations support. We have a full-time, U.S.-based, team of caring leaders who are committed to our clients’ growth and success. We have an extreme desire to be better today than we were yesterday.
From community and company naming, to logo design, collateral design, website design, form integration, email marketing, public relations, SEO and digital marketing, among so many other things, we’re your one-stop shop, and I’ll be there with you from day 1, ensuring your needs are met, your sales teams are supported, and your communities stay full with happy residents.
Rich Malloy
Co-Founder & Strategy
Rich is the brains and the muscle behind C&C. He leads our team, he requires accountability, and he demands excellence, all with a huge heart. You’ll meet Rich from time to time, but for the most part, he’ll be in the background, making sure everything is running smoothly.
Rich developed his first website in 2000. Much has changed in the web development industry since then, but what has not changed is Rich’s keen understanding of communication and craft. He quickly cuts through excess information to get the cleanest and most concise message delivered.
Rich has created websites for various industries, Fortune 500 companies, and Mom & Pop businesses. Today, he takes this knowledge and his expertise in strategy to create brands and marketing developments for senior living companies nationwide. Rich is an expert at applying business ideas to the real world, coming up with innovative campaigns for our clients, and helping them to achieve their business goals.
He leads our team of designers, developers and writers, and initiates successful campaigns and strategies for each of our senior living and senior-focused clients.
Our Team Includes Leaders in Public Relations, Digital Management, and Design.
Meredith Harris
Director of Operations
Meredith serves the clients of Craft & Communicate by managing online listings, acting as a liaison for admin inquiries, and facilitating quality assurance. She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in theatre and quickly learned how important storytelling is in marketing. After graduating, she immediately settled into marketing in senior-related industries and has gained a passion for serving the generations before us. In her free time, you can find Meredith volunteering at her church and singing and playing guitar in the praise band. She has the tallest husband in the world (clocking in at 6’7”) and a ferocious feline. Phil. 4:8
