  Networking with the Baltimore Ravens!

  Aug 23, 202625 min

  Chad Bauer is President & Owner of SR&B Advertising, a performance-driven growth marketing agency based in Baltimore, USA - over 60 years in business. Chad acquired the agency from his father and has transformed it from a traditional advertising shop into a modern, data-driven operation. Every client SR&B has today came through a referral - no paid ads, no outside sales team, no self-promotion. That 100% referral-based growth model, paired with a 94% annual client retention rate, is the direct result of how Chad and his team approach relationships: build trust first, deliver results consistently, and let the work speak for itself. In a world where technology has made it easy to hide behind screens, Chad believes the businesses that still pick up the phone, sit across the table, and invest in genuine human connection have a real competitive advantage. He's also active in his local business community, currently in his third year serving as Assistant Vice President of Sponsorship for AMA Baltimore and is part of the Baltimore Ravens Small Business Partnership - a relationship he pursued specifically for the networking opportunity it created with two dozen fellow local businesses.
