Keenan Longcor formed his organization, Keenan Longcor and Associates, in 1971. This sales and marketing firm was established as an independent sales agency providing services to the upscale Gift, Social Stationery and Accessories Industry. He officially became “a manager” in 1981 when he hired his first sales associate. This evolution escalated in the ensuing years to include eighteen sales associates serving the five-state Pacific Northwest Region.

His agency was consistently recognized as the leader in both sales volume and quality of associates serving the industry in this region. Keenan sold his agency in 1999 to a national sales and marketing firm. Subsequently, he has published articles in national trade magazines, published INTERPERSONAL a Sales and Marketing Letter and assisted other Sales and Manufacturer firms as a consultant.

In 2005 he and his son Ben founded “Friends of Baseball.” This organization currently provides league sustaining funding and equipment to youth Baseball and Softball Organizations that exhibit compelling need in Oregon. Please visit www.friendsofbaseball.org for further information.

Many of us from varied industries have shared parallel lives in determining how to bring uncommon success to our organizations. The topics you will find in the months ahead will address the challenges that can often be learned in only one way: on the streets and in the trenches.
