NNEP - Key Persons
NNEP president Jennifer Cox was recognized as a Small Business Influencer in the Leaders category in 2013. The Small Business Influencer Awards honor those who are influential to small businesses in North America, through the products, services, knowledge, information or support they provide to the small business market. The Awards are designed to recognize the unsung heroes of small businesses - those who support and encourage entrepreneurs and small business owners, and help them achieve success and stay successful.
Within the year, Susan and Arch recognized that the embroidery side of the business was where they wanted to grow. They invited Jennifer (their daughter) to join them in the business. She graciously declined, as she was well on her way in an interesting career in Columbus, Ohio. They invited Jennifer to attend an embroidery event in Columbus, "Just for the afternoon - what could it hurt?" By the end of the event, Jennifer was ready to join the family business.
