First, let’s start off with the introduction. I’m T.C. and I’m the director of SEO and AI Search at Tegrity Marketing. I grew up here, and after stints in Pittsburgh, San Francisco, Miami, and Philadelphia, I returned here with my wife in 2021 to raise our growing family.

I know this town, and I’ve always loved it. And because Tegrity Marketing started as a 100% remote digital marketing company, that flexibility allowed us to choose wherever we wanted to live.

Over the last few years, we’ve found that a lot of clients are looking for more of a personal touch. That’s why we first opened a office in Richmond, Virginia. That decision really changed the game for us. Clients wanted to be able to come to a physical office to discuss marketing strategy, launch their website, and just make that personal connection with the team behind their digital footprint.

Following our Richmond success, we opened our second office in Meadville at Hatch Hollow on Market Street.

Hatch Hollow has been the perfect match for our brand because it offers a casual vibe that connects with our brand promise of digital marketing with laid-back pros who do right by people.

Why Meadville’s Past Fuels Tegrity’s Future

Meadville has always been a town that makes things. In 1913 Talon Corporation moved here and became the world’s first mass-producer of zippers—at one point manufacturing seven out of every ten sold worldwide. Railroads, American Viscose fiber, and Channellock tools followed, giving the city a proud blue-collar foundation.

When heavy industry across the Great Lakes collapsed in the1980s, Meadville didn’t fold—it pivoted. Local machinists spun up light-manufacturing and precision shops, earning the nickname “Tool City, USA. ”In fact, more than 14% of residents still work in tooling or advanced machining today.

That same resilience now powers a creative renaissance. Murals bloom along Chestnut and Market Streets, the 1,200-foot Read Between the Signs installation turns scrap road signs into public art, and coworking hubs like Hatch Hollow blend designers with printmakers under one roof.

Tegrity Marketing fits right into that evolution. We tap the meticulous craftsmanship of Meadville’s tool-and-die heritage while driving the kind of forward-thinking creativity that’s painting the town’s next chapter. In short, we build marketing the same way Meadville builds parts: precise, resilient, and ready for the future.
