Family Matters | Vince & Jack Croyle

August 15, 2024

Two men, smiling in their blue shirts and nametags, stand on a gravel area before a building with arches and red roof tiles. The clear, sunny sky illuminates the scene as they discuss an Auto Draft feature while a group gathers on the steps in the background.

At American Solutions for Business, we pride ourselves on being a family-centered company, where many of our teams are built on the bonds between parents, children, spouses, and siblings. We recognize and celebrate the unique strength that family dynamics bring to our sales teams. These families work together seamlessly, sharing invaluable knowledge and a deep commitment to our customers.

In this month’s Family Matters blog, we shine a spotlight on the father-son sales duo, Vince and Jack Croyle. Inspired by his father’s passion for his work at American, Jack knew that joining forces with his dad was the perfect career move.

When did you start working at American?

Vince – May 2017

Jack – September 2023

What’s your favorite memory from Jack’s childhood?

Many years of baseball.

Vince & Jack Croyle stand on a stone wall, savoring the view of green fields and scattered houses beneath a cloudy sky. One leans gently while the other, with a backpack slung over his shoulder, stands by—moments like these remind them that family matters most.

What motivated you to start working together as a family?

Jack observed how much I thoroughly enjoy my work life with American. He grew more and more interested in learning about American, and once he graduated college, he came onboard.

Can you share a memorable success story that you achieved together?

I think it would have to be when Jack landed his first order. We discussed vendors best suited for the project and the client was thrilled with the finished product and the customer service he provided.

A group of five, including Vince Croyle, sit at a restaurant table, smiling and enjoying drinks. The table features condiments and a drink menu. The lively restaurant buzzes with patrons and decorations on the walls, while a TV in the background broadcasts a sports game.
A graduate in a blue cap and gown stands between two adults, a woman on the left and Vince Croyle on the right. They are smiling on a balcony with greenery in the background. The woman wears a light blue scarf, and Vince sports a blue shirt. It's truly a Family Matters moment.

What do you love about working together?

We speak with each other often. It creates more communication as we discuss work as well as life outside of work.

What’s a challenge you face when working together?

We live in two separate cities, so we must work over the phone and internet.

Two men, possibly Jack and Vince Croyle, stand in front of an old brick building with large arched windows and a sign reading "1908." People walk around in the background under a clear, blue sky. It feels like a scene from "Family Matters," where history and community intertwine seamlessly.

What advice would you give to other family pairs considering working together professionally?

Just be open with each other’s ideas and enjoy the extra time you gain from working together.
