Jason Niedle, President & Senior Art Director
Seeing a large need in the marketplace for a great custom calendar company, Jason Niedle founded The Calendar Factory in late 2002. After now over 10 years owning and running successful printing & marketing companies, Jason's experience is uniquely suited for the promotional & retail calendar market.
A seasoned art director with a degree in philosophy, he tends to frequently ask "why?" How come? Because understanding and exceeding the client's needs is the only thing that matters, he says. Jason believes that graphic design's purpose is to visually convey a message -- a message that supports the client's ultimate goals.
Beyond extensive management experience, Jason is also a professional photographer, loves to travel, has climbed the highest mountain in Africa, graduated from a series of intensive personal growth courses, is a member of Mensa, performed at Carnegie Hall, and is past-President of the local chapter of Entrepreneurs' Organization (leading nearly 100 members with over $1 billion in revenues ... and recently tapped to a position leading 500+ members with over $6 billion in revenue). Jason is most proud of his participation in supporting a number of child-related causes.
Christopher Hoskins, Director
Christopher Hoskins' real estate career started out with the purchase of a small share of a resort cabin. Eventually he carefully spun that early success into owning commercial property around the country. Self made, Chris knows what it takes to create success, while at the same time having a great feel for what people like.
A great "people person," Chris still doesn't shy away from saying the "hard" truth -- a necessary quality for a member of The Calendar Factory's Board.
Chris is a father of three, was on a Mt Everest climbing expedition and has climbed numerous peaks around the world, has also completed a series of intensive personal growth courses and sits on the Board of Young Entrepreneurs' Organization. Chris is founder of HeRO, The Hunger Relief Organization, a non-profit dedicated to the eradication of starvation, and is currently busy leading a group of entrepreneurs organizing a charity golf tournament.
