Crayton Corporation is a SME multinational holding company. The entity was established in order to consolidate the business efforts of its enterprising board of directors and corporate partners around the world. Since its inception, we have developed, licensed and sold more than 50 start-up businesses, business concepts and domains, whilst maintaining our core operations in entertainment, technology, film finance brokering, and public relations.
From the United Kingdom to Kansas City, MO, our B2B operations are strategically placed to provide quick and efficient services to entities of all types and sizes. With 7 locations and over 200 staff worldwide, we move at lighting speed to maintain and develop new business and business relations.
Our mission is to be the best at identifying, qualifying, and developing and delivering superior solutions that enhance our customer's bottom line. Everything we do is inspired by our ever enduring mission:
to inspire moments of optimism, through our brands and actions; to create value & make a difference...everywhere we engage; and to progress forward in all that we do.
We take a firm stand in our business ideals, operations, and principals in order to enact high standards within the industries as a whole. Being unique, Crayton Corporation is not only a brand, it is a statement of ongoing growth.
Find Out More About What We Do
"Since 2006, we have been on a constant roller coaster full of excitement, as we have seen this company grow from a tiny start-up with 7 employees to just over 200 contractors and dozens of employees worldwide. Every now and then, I reflect on its beginnings. Just before I joined the company, I was well aware that the managers at Crayton Corporation were some of Hollywood's young movers and shakers. I didn't know how influential until I was a woman on the inside." Rachel Matthews
The business began in sunny Los Angeles, CA, where at its inception, Mr. Crayton adjoined his existing talent management firm with elite film finance investment groups from California, Italy, and Germany.
From the humble beginnings of a California apartment to the expansive development of sister offices in New York, Florida, Nevada, United Kingdom, and Canada, Crayton Corporation furthered its reach and service offerings. Beginning in entertainment, Crayton Corporation diversified its investment strategy by buying and developing businesses in other industries, such as, health & fitness, event management/supplies, education, retail, real estate, transportation, printing, networking, animal care, food & beverage, and creative design.
Mr. Crayton, a Midwestern native, noticed a large disparity in the entertainment industry whilst living in New York and California. Although the filming and music recording industries source talent in select coastal cities, much of that talent comes from the Midwest region. Of like manner, much of the food industry sources its products from the region, making central US a place of importance. To align his vision with the board of directors, Mr. Crayton convinced the board of its need to position itself in an area unexplored by the company. Now, Crayton Corporation has offices in Overland Park, KS and 3 offices in Kansas City, MO.
Below is a comprehensive list of the service areas and services we provide.
We offer an array of services for businesses of all sizes. Our callers are US-based, so you don't need to worry about mistranslation, delays, long distance calls, foreign legalities, and being out of reach. Need multilingual services? No problem. Best of all, you can maintain the integrity in knowing you are providing jobs right here in the United States, doing your countrymen a great service.
We offer web services for hosting, website design, maintenance and much more. Our developers and security staff have extensive knowledge in today's trends, devices, and marketing effectiveness to reach your customer base with great results. Best of all, we are skilled at delivering quick results to customers. Increase your business reach with our services; any load and capacity imaginable.
Our skilled US-based IT staff has knowledge on national and international software and hardware infrastructure hacking trends, intelligence, and counter intelligence. We typically work on operating systems used by the mass market, such as Apple, Windows, Linux, and Ubuntu. But we do have extensive knowledge in other types of personal and server OS types less used. Available 24hrs a day.
Get the advice and knowledge needed to keep you in business. It's not just about intuition...the gut instinct. But it's also about experience, numbers, facts, and figures. We take in the picture as a whole to help determine what can help clients from Point A to Point B. We keep up with trends and research from credible resources, develop our own patterns for data analysis, and client insight to better their position.
Have an idea? Everyone has them. We can get it them on the blue stuff! Blueprints. We employ designers who have made it their life's goal to design and think outside of the box. From moving parts to inanimate products, they can create magic. Yes, we employ magicians! When it comes to turning that blueprint design into the physical product, we can manufacture that design in the US or abroad.
Owners of realty have a responsibility to maintain property value, ensure state legal specifications are met, and many times maintain or improve upon a structure or exterior landscape. We make certain our customer's demands are met in a timely fashion, done economically, cost-effective, and to the satisfaction expected. From property management to helping sell a home with photos and interior design.
Without marketing, businesses rely on word-of-mouth alone. Unfortunately, word-of-mouth by itself is a slow process for growth. To realize fiscal increases in a way that allows for efficient business gains, developing an effective advertising strategy is pivotal. We diligently research all market areas for strengths & weaknesses, locate target market groups, and then cultivate the strategy to deliver results.
We take art seriously! Our experienced graphic designers are college educated in media arts and other design programs. We utilize effective designers that not only understand how to create great designs, but also know how to make visually appealing layouts that are commercially correct (e.g., the placement of imagery and ad copy). From logos to menu design, we do it all.
We offer an assortment of photography services. Real estate, retail, food, modeling portfolios, family photos, weddings, events...you name it! Let our skilled photographers shoot your event with our high speed cameras to catch all of the action. Memories are best remembered through imagery. Delivering photos that capture those great moments in time is what makes it worth it all. Available worldwide.
Create the right image for your business. With expert directors and producers, understanding how to capture a service, product or message in the right light is an easy task. We elevate your image and transform your growth. We can shoot on location or in our studio, but have the capability to record anywhere in the world. Commercials, infomercials, and music videos are our most popular services in this category.
Reinventing the wheel can be done! We know because we have the recipe. The secret is that nothing is standard. We can setup elaborate parties guaranteed to knock your socks off and simplistic events for intimate settings. Also, we have access to local and celebrity artists/bands that perform events. With an idea in mind, let us realize it for you. Whatever the event, we customize, plan, and work within budget.
Recording music and vocals is an art and science. Our "production lab" engineers are specialists in their craft, looking beyond the fundamentals of notation. They consistently develop commercial ready material, which means they know what it takes to make your audio recording professional. Because they are creatively skilled and "in-tune" to today's trends, they can achieve that desired sound.
Perfect for adults and children, we offer on-site, remote (online), and from home lessons. Learn about acting, modeling, film and music production, and more. Our classes range from beginner courses to master level courses. Our high-end classes are taught by university professors, celebrity artists and actors, as well as our in-house teachers at 825 Studios. Take daily, weekly, or bi-weekly classes. Learn at your pace.
Why spend thousands on something that you only need for 1-2 days, or hire a company long-term when only a short-term solution is required? If a small budget is in mind, then we have workable solutions that can get you what you need by the date you need it. We supply small to large businesses, as well as budding companies with temp staff & recording gear to capture awesome moments through film & audio.
Shopping is practically a religion, because we all have a ritual of sorts. We know shopper behavior and the trends associated with different demographics. Placement of your product in the right stores brands, in the right cities, at the right price, and at the right time is what we are trained to know. When you're looking to get into retail, using our knowledge and retail connections will get you where you need to be.
Musicians know what it is like to perform concerts and not get paid for a performance. So why perform without the chance to earn cash? A great way for fans to connect with their favorite artists is to provide them with items that can make them feel connected. We provide musicians a way to achieve that. Custom paintings, pens, t-shirts, hats, clothes (hand made), posters...whatever the flavor.
From musicians selling music for retail distribution and concerts to businesses redistributing material for workers, our staff works around the clock to ensure we match quality with price. We offer quick turnarounds for shortrun duplication and offer extremely competitive pricing on replication and duplication. In fact, if you find a cheaper price out there, let us know, we'll try to match it.
Music equipment is not cheap and many have an attachment to what they have. We aim to preserve instruments and bring them back to life. Often fixes are simple, but some elaborate tasks require surgical persission. We've seen it all. Equipment can be dropped off at 825 Studios, picked-up (if in New York, Los Angeles, Nashville, or Kansas City), or mailed (if under 50 lbs.), and returned in the same manner.
Lawyers are costly. So, we've devised a way to reduce that cost. We bonus and benefit them in other ways, which allows the consumer cost to be reduced. Our experienced legal team and trained negotiators can work on your behalf for a fraction of the cost, allowing you to get what is needed. From obtaining patents to copyrights, we offer an array of different services that are great for businesses and musicians.
Why spend countless hours browsing for deals, when you can send an email, text, or make a 2 minute call for setup? Easy right? We thought so. Since 2008, we have provided private concierge services for the clients we manage - businesses, actors, models, music artists, comedians, speakers, and producers. We have partnerships with the biggest airlines, car services, and hotels to keep prices low.
Licensing is an area of business that allows the growth of a business or artist to boom. Growth by an individual is possible, but rapid growth of product manufacturing and awareness often happens with licensing. We can get your product or music in the right hands. Not every pitch or product is always success, but we have a great success rate, and have the right connections to increase the chances.
