An interview with Nick Marchetti, President of AMI Signs.
How did AMI Signs get its start?
After spending 30 years in the corporate world and holding Senior Executive positions at some of the worlds best companies (GE, Visa), I decided that I wanted to live AND WORK in Frederick. No more business travel, no more long commutes. I wanted to build my own business and become part of the Frederick community.
After exploring numerous business opportunities, I decided to start a sign company. Why? Because the sign business opportunity is very large, very diverse and ever changing. We serve all types of business, from start-ups to mid-sized growth businesses, to Fortune 500 companies. Everyday is unique, and provides an opportunity to meet new people and help them market and grow their businesses.
What do you like most about being a business owner in Frederick?
I enjoy meeting other business owners and business leaders across a wide variety of For-profit and Not-for-Profit organizations. Attending Chamber events that facilitate these interactions and advocate for our business success.
