If our name sounds familiar, you probably grew up watchingMister Rogers’Neighborhood…
…or, our brand is growing (hopefully, that last one). Matt Deter started Speedy Movers (SPEEDY) as a way to earn extra cash for his college tuition. When it came time to name his company, Matt wanted to find a way to communicate his personal values for how business should be done. “Doing business is too often simply transactional. But, business is more than a transaction—it’s about relationships with real people.”
Mr. McFeely’s character from this popular kids television program represented more than a (speedy) transaction at each visit. Mr. McFeely became a beloved character and friend to Mister Rogers, and all who watched, because of the relationship that developed between them. To Matt, the “Speedy Delivery” catchphrase became a symbol for the ideal way business should be done, by creating not just customers—by creating friends.
