OhioMBE Awards Top Family Business Nominee:
Outreach Promotional Solutions
Nevin Bansal
Established in 2012, Outreach has expanded beyond legacy family printing company to become a complete marketing solutions provider. With consistent double-digit growth since inception, Outreach has built innovative solutions including its brandstores platform and “elevate” – its digital marketing service for small business.
Outreach, a certified MBE and EDGE company, has been a contracted provider for The Ohio State University for the last three+ years. As an active MBE, Outreach has been able to work with Honda, Kroger, Cleveland Clinic and other large institutions. In addition, Outreach is a partner with a number of local organizations including OMSDC, Columbus Business First, COSE, Greater Cleveland Partnership, and the Columbus Chamber.
Outreach is a committed MBE, helping the State printing office with bids as well as providing OMSDC with marketing and partnership support. Outreach is also a great example of how having an MBE can open doors.
Whether it is founding Small Biz Cares, being a partner with OMSDC, providing in-kind support for local nonprofits or continuing on the path to growth, Outreach is a great example of how business can do well by doing good. The philosophy of “Promoting Brands. Promoting Communities.” is something that helps Outreach attain new clients but also give back.
Outreach runs an annual charity event, leverages social media to raise awareness for nonprofits and has team volunteer outings. Outreach regularly provides in-kind products and services to local nonprofits. Outreach is also a founding member of a new nonprofit, Small Biz Cares, which is set to launch later this year. Nevin Bansal, Outreach’s CEO is the visionary behind this new organization aimed at bringing together small businesses for community impact and philanthropy.
