Article: Personal Touch Brings Success

Daniel and Kathy Randolph specialize in making it personal, and that specialty has landed their Willowbrook-based catalog retail company among the fastest-growing small businesses in the country.

Personal Creations - which sells unique personalized gifts such as calendars and mouse pads featuring reproductions of family photos, and basketball hoop-style laundry chutes with the recipient's name on the backboard - has grown from a tiny entity begun in the couple's home to a $10 million company with seven retail outlets.

It has grown in a saturated catalog retail industry where others have folded, and it recently made Inc. magazine's list of the 500 fastest-growing companies.
