 Founded in 2016 by Kasey King, Charleston Corporate Housing offers fully furnished, short term apartments & homes to companies and individuals in the Charleston area who are in need of temporary housing. "I came up with the idea of Charleston Corporate Housing when I was working as the Director of Sales at a hotel in Mt. Pleasant.” said Kasey. “I would receive phone calls practically every day from someone looking for a better short term housing alternative than living in a hotel for 6 weeks or even 6 months at a time".
We serve a wide variety of professionals for corporate housing and extended stays including interns, business travelers, and executives in industries such as automotive, manufacturing, military and more. All of our furnished corporate apartments (and homes) come with everything that you’ll need to feel “at home” while you’re staying with us. Utilities, wifi and other necessities are built in and included in monthly rates. Any companies or individuals with short term rental needs are encouraged to get in contact with Charleston Corporate Housing. A unique fact about our owner... Kasey King went on a spiritual journey in May, 2018 hearing a higher power call him to “Give”. The very next day, he went to his daughter’s elementary school and paid off their $8,000.00 unpaid student lunch debt at Joseph Pye Elementary.

Business Continuity Planning for Maritime, Logistics, Construction and the Trades. We've been a leader in the strategic planning space since 1981, developing a number of specialized planning processes that put client and strategy first, and products second. That decades long journey has taught us many lessons that our advisors now bring to bear for the benefit of our clients. Focus on What Matters Most - As one of the largest planning firms in the Southeast, our business owner clients have benefited from the fact our team-based approach fosters incredible innovation and creativity when it comes to solving complex planning problems. • Income and Revenue Protection • Attraction and Retention of Key Employees • Exit Planning Strategies • Cash Flow Management Strategy Before Product - The financial services industry is increasingly commoditized and products are obtainable anywhere. We provide real value to our clients by being process-first and delivering a financial strategy that is built by financial products, not the other way around. What regions do you serve? Headquartered in Charlotte, with offices across the Carolinas and in Georgia, our advisors are well positioned to serve clients throughout the South East. We are not limited to clients we see face to face, our web based technology and planning process lends well to servicing clients across the country. What might surprise me about Consolidated Planning? Founded with 4 Advisors in 1981, CP has now grown to over 120 Advisors across 13 locations managing over $1.4 Billion in Assets and over $6.5 Billion in Insurance Protection. Having sheer numbers of so many capable Advisors working in concert has also fostered this innovation - because of our scale we've had a great number of minds collaborating rather than working in silos. What are some of Consolidated Planning's proudest accomplishments? Our firm and Advisors support a number of community projects throughout our footprint. Here locally we are raising money for the Lowcountry Maritime Society’s program so that the 4th grade boat building projects continue! We also are looking forward to new office space in our new location at 350 Coleman Blvd in Mt. Pleasant.

A brief summary of your services will tell us… Ross Printing is a 3rd generation, veteran owned small business, with over 300 years combined experience between our twenty-three employees. Starting from a simple stationery shop in New York City in 1946, our company has changed and grown tremendously with the advent of new technologies and printing methods. We have been serving the Low Country of South Carolina since 1989, providing the most complete product line, at the highest quality, with superior customer service. What regions do you serve? We have no limits - we can be reached by walk ins, phone, fax and the internet. What might surprise me about Ross Printing? Current owner, Jeremy Ross, came into the picture in 1991, after serving in the Army during Operation Desert Storm. Learning all he could about the company his father and grandfather had built, Jeremy began implementing new ideas. He took the company from one that brokered jobs for their clients, relying on other printer’s services, and brought back the presses and equipment necessary to print right there in the Ross Printing facility. This allowed Jeremy to meet his clients’ needs at a service level that would exceed expectations and build stronger customer relationships. Under Jeremy’s leadership and through strategic acquisitions of competitors and complimentary companies, Ross Printing has expanded from 5 to 23 full-time employees with 10,000 square feet of space including their building expansion in late summer 2017. In 2010, Ross Printing expanded its product offering and in-house services through the acquisition of Low Country Target Mailing - Charleston’s oldest and most experienced mail service provider. This allowed us to fully encircle our customers’ projects, offering concept and design, through production and finally distribution to specific targeted markets. All of this, including the acquisition of niche production capabilities like wide format printing, laser cutting and engraving and direct to garment printing, give us the ability to offer the widest range of products and services in the Low Country. How do you attract and retain a dedicated workforce that is able to support all of your customers’ needs? We try to motivate and inspire our employees and demonstrate that we have faith in their abilities to get the job done. We are always open and available and provide workplace flexibility. Our team is a family - we laugh, we bicker, we joke, we get the job done together - when one succeeds, we all succeed. What are some of Ross Printings’ proudest accomplishments? We have been on the Top 100 list for quick commercial printers twice, recognized in the Business Journal’s 40 under 40, one of the Fastest Growing Small Businesses in Charleston, Winner of Charleston’s Choice for Best Printer 2016 and 2017 and more. Awards and accolades are great, but just being able to stay in business and grow in a competitive environment for nearly 30 years is something to be proud of. Several of our clients have been with us from the beginning and their recommendations to their friends and business partners proves that we are continuing to meet our goal of being the best printer in Charleston.

The Chief of the Kiawah Indians, known as “The Cassique,” played an instrumental role in establishing a relationship between the Indians and the English. As a tribute to the local Kiawah Indians in the area and because we play a part in the trade between different countries and different companies we decided to name our company Cassique Warehousing and Packaging, LLC.
