SALT LAKE CITY, May 11, 2010 – Snapp Conner PR (http://snappconner.com/) today announced that A. Cory Maloy has been named partner. Maloy joins partners Cheryl Snapp Conner, Jeremy Kartchner and Clayton Blackham in moving Snapp Conner to its next level as the agency continues to define the role of strategic public relations for companies in the Intermountain West and throughout the U.S.
“This announcement is significant as it marks another milestone in our growth as Utah’s most progressive PR agency,” said Cheryl Snapp Conner, founder and managing partner of Snapp Conner PR. “We are defining the level of excellence that is available to companies needing PR professionals, resources, reach and advanced strategic PR counsel right here in Utah.”
As the agency’s fourth partner, Maloy will continue his focus on advanced business strategy for current clients and on driving the agency’s growth.

Cory and the entire staff at Snapp Conner make up the most professional group of PR experts you can find anywhere in this region. We congratulate Cory and Snapp Conner PR on this great high point.”
Maloy brings more than 20 years of PR experience to Snapp Conner PR. He has provided PR strategy leadership and business development to Snapp Conner since October 2008 and has led national and global programs such as InterbankFX’ successful expansion in 2009 to Korea.
Before joining Snapp Conner PR, Maloy served as Senior Director of Public Relations/Corporate Communications for MediConnect Global. Prior to MediConnect, Maloy served for two years as Senior VP of PR for Adams & Knight in Avon, CT and for five years as vice president at Wilson McHenry Company in San Francisco. He has served in both agency and corporate communications positions throughout his career representing small to large companies such as Iomega Corporation, Plantronics, Maxtor, Dayna Communications, Cobalt Networks (Sun), silex technology, Travelers, Nelson Laboratories, Fishbowl and others.

-Agency celebrates third anniversary with three partners being named to the vSpring Capital Top 100 Venture Entrepreneurs-
SALT LAKE CITY, April 28, 2010 – Kicking off its third year in business, Snapp Conner PR shows that good things really do come in threes.
Since opening its doors in 2007, Snapp Conner PR has achieved the following milestones:
- Named one of The Utah Valley Entrepreneur Forum’s Top 25 Under Five three times
- Acquisition of its own office space to accommodate growth and better serve its customers
- Continued and sustained growth, in both client roster and staff throughout the recession
“We’re grateful for the success we’ve experienced in our first three years and recognize that none of this would be possible if it weren’t for our clients and their understanding of the value a strategic public relations plan can play in their success,” said Cheryl Snapp Conner, founder and managing partner of Snapp Conner PR. “The last couple of years have been particularly hard on businesses and those that can differentiate themselves through reliable third party endorsements from trusted media sources have been more able to weather the economic storm and even prosper.”
When Snapp Conner PR began its operations three years ago, the agency had five clients, one of which was the Utah Technology Council (UTC).
“We’ve worked with Snapp Conner since its inception three years ago and have benefitted greatly from their strategic counsel,” said Richard R. Nelson, President and CEO of the Utah Technology Council. “The Snapp Conner PR team has always been incredibly supportive and instrumental in our efforts to promote Utah’s high tech and life science companies, and they are a driving force in our ability to foster growth, develop a quality workforce and increase funding opportunities for these sectors in Utah.”
Snapp Conner PR currently represents more than 30 companies, consisting of a mixture of local Utah clients and nationally based companies.
"In addition to providing insight and direction on Viewfinity's technology and product vision, our strategy partnership with SageCreek Partners resulted in an the introduction to Snapp Conner PR, a top-notch public relations firm,” said Gil Rapaport, president of Viewfinity, Inc. “Because of Snapp Conner’s well-established reputation with the journalists and analysts who cover systems management, Viewfinity’s debut into the market was especially well-received and highly impactful."
In addition to celebrating its third year in business, the agency’s three partners Cheryl Snapp Conner, Jeremy Kartchner and Clayton Blackham were named to the vSpring Capital Top 100 Venture Entrepreneurs (v100) for the second year in a row.
The v100 was created in 2004 as a way to recognize Utah’s outstanding entrepreneurs and to support and promote collaborative partnering and mentoring among top entrepreneurs in the region. It was designed to help entrepreneurs and vSpring Capital locate and cultivate relationships among top CEO and CTO talent in the region. Members of the v100 are chosen through a community-nominated and peer-selected process.
“We’re honored to be recognized again as VSpring 100 winners as this is a direct result of voting and input from peers and clients,” said Blackham. “Moving forward we look forward to continuing our growth and in helping our clients achieve their goals through strategic public relations campaigns that create awareness about our clients and differentiate them from their competitors.”
