Meet Crystal

With over a decade of experience helping small businesses achieve financial growth, Crystal knows exactly what it takes to make marketing work for financial professionals.

After earning her Masters of Business Administration at Francis Marion University in 2009, Crystal went on to become the Director of Business Development for Armstrong Wealth Management Group, where she helped grow the business by 26 percent during an economic recession. During her time there, Crystal achieved success by creatively generating leads via community events, website interaction, and social media outreach.

In 2011, Crystal launched Crystal Marketing Solutions, LLC (CMS). Today, the firm continues to help independent RIAs and LPL financial advisors create successful marketing strategies that achieve financial growth.

Crystal and her team know that every great business relationship is all about collaboration, so by listening to their clients and understanding their needs, they develop effective marketing plans and provide the back office support required to implement successful strategies. 

Crystal Marketing Solutions offers services which include strategic marketing, website management, graphic design, advertising, merchandising, email, mass mail, social media, branding, and event planning.

On a Personal Note

Growing up, Crystal lived in Kansas, Germany, and Virginia while her father served in the Army. At Francis Marion University, she played volleyball for the Patriots, and her passion for the game continues to this day as a coach for Junior Olympic Volleyball.

She spends her free time volunteering at her church and with many other community organizations and is also a strong advocate for breast cancer awareness and prevention due to her personal family connection to the cause. 

Although part of her heart will always be in South Carolina, Crystal now calls Virginia her home where she runs her business and lives with her husband and their two children.
