As Company Enters Rapid Growth Phase, Gross To Lead

Focused Sales and Marketing Initiatives To Drive Revenues

 

COLUMBUS, OH – (April 30, 2015) – Intellinetics, Inc. (OTCQB: INLX), a leading-edge technology company focused on the design, implementation and management of cloud-based Enterprise Content Management (ECM) systems in both the public and private sectors, today announced that Murray H. Gross has been appointed Chairman of the Board. Gross has extensive experience in building successful publicly held micro-cap companies, with proven expertise in marketing & sales management, finance, and mergers & acquisitions.

 

Gross was Chairman, CEO, and President of US Home Systems (NASDAQ: USHS) from its inception in 1997 through 2012. The Company grew to $180 million in sales when it was acquired by The Home Depot (NYSE: HD) in October 2012 for nearly $100 million.

 

Prior to founding USHS, Gross was the President and COO of Facelifters Home Systems from 1987 – 1996 when it was acquired by AMRE (NYSE: AMM) for $44 million. Gross began his entrepreneurial pursuits when he co-founded Pennsylvania-based Busy Beavers Remodelers. This Company was sold to its partner, Busy Beavers Home Centers, and both companies were acquired in 1972 by Cyclops Corporation, then number 240 on the Fortune 500 list.

 

Gross said that, “My objective is to make impactful contributions that assist Intellinetics in its goal to become a meaningful provider to the nearly $6 billion ECM (Enterprise Content Management) market. I discovered Intellinetics first as an investor, and then came to have a deeper appreciation of its possibilities while working as a sales and marketing consultant for the Company. The relevance and usefulness of Intellinetics’ solutions for small or mid-sized business are truly extraordinary. I look forward to working with the Board and the team to increase both revenue and shareholder value,” concluded Gross.

 

Matthew L. Chretien, President and CEO of Intellinetics, said that, “We believe that 2015 is the year we will show significant financial progress in both material growth and profitability. The addition of Murray’s skill sets and deep experience in successfully building and growing sales-based businesses will be a significant resource for our growth plans.

 

“Our encouraging fourth quarter financial results – and the 72% increase in quarter-over-quarter revenues – are the first tangible results that we are on the right path,” Chretien said.
