Jack Brantley, Jr., President

The inspiration for Fitability came after many years of using assessment instruments for better employee selection, management and communication. Brantley and the founders created Fitability to be the tool they had needed as hiring managers, in both corporate and entrepreneurial settings. Brantley’s initial contribution to Fitability was to spearhead the acquisition, development and design of the intellectual property and user interface.

Brantley brings 20 years’ experience introducing and marketing new technologies to businesses, having been an investor and a founding manager for two successful startup businesses. Along with Regi Campbell, he was a founder of Interserv Services Corporation, a $50 million/year provider of teleservices and marketing research. He served as vice president at the Elrick & Lavidge division, where he directed marketing research and customer satisfaction studies for major telecommunications companies, and created a national syndicated research product in alliance with Deloitte Consulting. Prior to InterServ, Brantley was a co-founder of Async Corporation, a national voice processing service, where he developed the company’s core product as vice president of marketing. Async grew to sales of $30 million in five years, was on the Inc. Magazine “List of Fastest Growing Companies” prior to being acquired by MCI.

Brantley’s alma mater is the University of North Carolina where he was a Morehead Scholar. He is active in community leadership and usually has at least one musical instrument within easy reach.
