Kyle Morey’s Summary
Louisville-bred and Indiana-educated, Kyle Morey, Owner of the FootPrint Network, is fulfilling the promise of regionalism and helping people come out of obscurity by connecting the business community through the exchange of ideas, offering of platforms for business to business advertising, and encouraging commerce between local businesses at the grassroots level.
Kyle’s career path began as a part owner and director of business development with a high profile start up called LeapFrog Interactive. Armed with business cards and a quick smile, Kyle built a platform of business opportunities, mergers & acquisitions, and a solid network of alliances placing LeapFrog as the premier web design firm in the region.
Kyle went on to labor for four years as VP of Programs & Services at the Scottsdale Area Chamber of Commerce (AZ). Known in Scottsdale as Mr. Microphone, Kyle would command an audience and motivate people to action - whether members, volunteers or salespeople. Under his leadership, the Scottsdale Chamber achieved its highest membership gains in their 60-year history - more than 700 new members in a single year!
Upon return to his hometown, Kyle merged with One Southern Indiana in June of 2007 and quickly went to work implementing what he calls his three-pronged strategy to profit: the right PEOPLE, the right PLAN, and the right PRODUCT (he often throws in PASSION but no one likes "fours"). Thanks to his tactic and the efforts of his team, One Southern Indiana broke all-time records in new member acquisitions, retention, and non dues revenue including the most new members in a year’s time, the most in sponsorships and advertising sales, and the highest retention level in 20 years.
Kyle Morey continues to remain engaged in Metro Louisville, providing connections and creating buzz agents. As Kyle puts it, “the best is yet to come!”
