The Oct. 13 issue of The Business Journal featured a story headlined “Wanted: A new landlord for the IRS in Fresno.” The story features a statement about the IRS building attributed to Phil Souza, senior vice president for Newmark Grubb Pearson Commercial, which reads: “It’s going out unpriced,” so anyone making an opening bid has a lot of room for making an offer to start negotiations. While Souza was correctly quoted as saying the building was listed without a price, he did not say the statement regarding the opening bids, and should not have been paraphrased as such. 4 www.thebusinessjournal.com FRIDAY, OCTOBER 27, 2017

Community Bank, announced net income of $4.49 million, or 36 cents per common ENTERTAINMENT share, for the third quarter. That’s up from $3.11 million, or 28 cents per share, in the same period of 2016. The increase in net income for the quarter was attributed to an increase in net interest income of $2.58 million and an increase in non-interest income of $2.58 million. For the first nine months of the year, net income was $13.69 million, or $1.11 per share, compared to $12.57 million, or $1.14 per share, for the same period of 2016. The Company’s third quarter financial results reflect an increase in loans and continued expense management resulting in steady earnings growth for our shareholders. While the economy in our legacy region of the San Joaquin Valley remains sluggish, we are optimistic that there will be improvement in the future. Conversely, our expanded presence with recent mergers in the Greater Sacramento area shows promise in all relationship growth categories, igniting enthusiasm with both new and existing team members,” said James M.

TOP HAND MEDIA

How did Top Hand Media come to be?

It started with my business partner and I — we worked together (truth be told, he was my boss). Then came a day when it was clear we both needed to move on to the next step in our careers. We combined our talents and Top Hand Media was born.

We worked out of a close family friend’s dining room for eight months (it had a pool, so we were not complaining!). From there, we hustled. We networked with our friends, family and anyone who would give us work. One client became two, and two became three. We were amateurs, but we quickly got the hang of it. Besides having a strong work ethic, we were both hungry to learn, with a drive to be successful.

Our agency still has 95 percent of those first clients who had faith in us, believe it or not. After those first initial eight months we finally had enough money to afford a monthly rent in downtown Fresno. After a pretty extensive search effort, we found home in the T.W. Patterson Building. We have a diverse team of creative and innovative marketing pros — fun fact: only one of the 12 who work with us did we actually solicit an interview from, but almost all of them reached out to us to join the THM team.

How did you guys find your niche in the local market?

We relocated our offices to downtown Fresno at a pivotal point in the downtown revitalization process. In fact, the first month of being downtown, we attended a What we do: Top Hand Media (THM) provides solutions, for whatever that may be for city hall meeting where $20 million was approved to turn Fulton Mall into Fulton any business. We pride ourselves in being a creative workshop, and taking healthy Street. Being born and raised in Fresno, it was easy to get behind the movement risks on a regular basis. Website development, video production, design, SEO, and that was happening downtown. photography are a few of the areas we specialize in. It is not uncommon for us to regularly venture into new vertical markets and test the waters, usually going against We started small, by doing pro-bono and inexpensive jobs for local companies in the normal practices. downtown — we wanted to show them we were the real deal. Eventually, our work started to speak for itself and we gained momentum, which led to bigger clients, Education: Graduated from Fresno State with a Bachelor of Science Degree in mostly in the downtown area. One project we did early on, we lost money in order kinesiology. to complete it (as in, we took the project on for free and spent our own money to make it happen). It was risky, but it paid off. To this day, we meet people who Age: 30 reference that project. I think that tells a lot about the type of agency we are, and how far we’ve come. Family: I have two great parents and one brother. You guys are located in Downtown Fresno. How has that factored into your company identity?

It has played a huge role in our identity. You can’t just make a video about marketing, businesses require risk too. downtown and not be in the community itself. Our team genuinely cares about this community. Working in the heart of downtown, we are face-to-face with the Where do you see Top Hand Media in five years? struggles our city has overcome. We see it daily. If our company can have a hand in changing some of these issues, then we have won. Owning the Fresno Grizzlies. Just kidding, but who knows! I see THM continuing to push Fresno’s brand to new places. We take it personally when we hear people Your thoughts on the opening of Fulton Street? bad talking our city, whether it is from friends or in the news or movies. When people look back on an era that changed Fresno, we want to be a part of that This is a huge moment in Fresno’s history, and we are front row. Downtown needs conversation. a breath of fresh air, and I, along with many others, think this is the start of something really amazing. I don’t think we will forget the past, and how we got What was your very first job and what did you learn from it? here, but there is just something about ‘change’ that excites me. Also, I really want to ride my bike down it! I was a little league umpire in Madera Ranchos. I would work Saturdays and Sundays, usually 2-3 games a day. Most of the time, I spent half my paychecks What can a business owner expect from an initial meeting with Top Hand Media? at the snack bar. I learned that parents can be brutal and nothing is worse than calling strike three on their 8-year-old. To no surprise, I did not return to umpire We spend most of our time getting to know people. Sometimes it is the entire the next season. meeting and very little business is actually discussed. At the base of everything we do, we have always believed that having a solid and healthy relationship with What do you like to do in your spare time? a client is paramount, and that comes from knowing them and their business. We are not in the business of making cookie-cutter anything, but asking the hard I love playing indoor soccer, hiking, rock climbing, crochet, woodworking, yard questions and taking risks. Our company was born on risk, and we believe that in saling and being a part of the downtown community. 10 The List www.thebusinessjournal.com FRIDAY, OCTOBER 27, 2017 Events and Attractions In the Central San Joaquin Valley - ranked by 2017 estimated attendance; if tied, attendance for 2016.
