History
Crestcom was founded in 1987 by Hal Krause and John Krause, brothers with many years of experience at the forefront of the training industry. The company began marketing internationally through franchises and distributors in 1988. Crestcom has undergone significant changes over the past few years. In 2015, Tammy Berberick became the CEO, and since that time, Crestcom has upgraded its technology backbone, product offering, franchisee support, marketing materials, and website. These initiatives have resulted in:
- Upgraded Internal Resource Portal: Franchisees can track and report sales, access product, operations, and marketing materials, communicate between franchisor and franchisee, and most recently, enroll in facilitation courses.
- Proprietary Learning Portal: Developed to allow participants to track training progress and to receive micro-learnings to augment their classroom-based training.
- Increased Brand Exposure: Crestcom has attracted more than 650k followers to the Crestcom Leadership Facebook page and more than 14k on LinkedIn.
Crestcom has expanded its operations to over 60 countries and has provided training in over 20 languages. The organization currently has over 160 franchisees from all over the world. Our mission is to create a better, more ethical world by developing great leaders. That’s why we’re continually looking to expand our reach and representation in certain key cities around the world. Now is a great time to partner with Crestcom.
