Black Oak Creative, a branding, content and marketing agency based in central Florida, named Scott Clack director of business development, strengthening its position in the marine industry and its growth efforts across other categories. Clack’s experience in the marine industry includes work with boatbuilders, suppliers and executives, according to a Black Oak press release.
“Relationships, spectacular work and leading with kindness are huge parts of what has made Black Oak successful,” founder and CEO Steve Bates said in the release. “Scott has built his entire career the same way. He knows this industry, he knows the people in it, and most importantly, people trust him. Pair that with what our team is capable of delivering, and I think we have an incredible opportunity in front of us.”
Bates and Clack first crossed paths at Cypress Gardens in the 1990s, sharing a background in competitive water skiing before their careers took them down separate paths within the industry.
