ANTHONY QUARANTA,
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

Anthony's first venture into the corporate sales and marketing world was with the consolidated foods, a Fortune 1000 conglomerate of food and paper products. His acumen to sales quickly elevated him as he was awarded salesperson of the year in his second year with the organization. This success encouraged him to venture out into his first business endeavor. In 1983, he founded CompuForm Ltd, as a provider of paper-based marketing and business process documents. From day 1, the focus was always on growing revenue. Today CompuForm has evolved into The CF Group and provides clients with consulting and products in Marketing, Printing Communications and Interactive Media.

A leader in print and the graphic industry, Anthony has developed innovative products and designs throughout his 20 year career. His accomplishments were recognized when the Document Management Association named the CF Group "Corporate Member of the Year." Anthony is one of a select group of Certified Document Consultants (CDC) and was a member of the CDC Board of Directors for six years where he helped maintain the high standards required for accreditation. Additionally, Anthony served on the board of directors of the Document Management Industry Association, which represented over 50,000 members of the Graphic Arts & Communication Industry.

As his industry evolved, he too evolved and pursued his aspirations in the Business Consulting world. He's spent 10 years as a member of TEC International, where he gained his valuable business experience and formed relationships with many of Long Island's business elite. As a TEC member, Anthony participated as an Advisory Board Member throughout a number of diverse industries. This real world experience has exposed him to many of today’s CEO's issues.

Additionally, Anthony has devoted a fair amount of his business life to philanthropic and charity efforts. He has served on boards and committees for organizations such as the American Heart Association, Juvenile Diabetes, and New York State Special Olympics. Currently, Anthony is a member of the Board of Directors for the Brooklyn Philharmonic as well as a major supporter. Along with the President of the Brooklyn Philharmonic, J. Barclay Collins II, Anthony has helped revitalize BPH from a financially struggling organization to a viable artistic foundation.

In 2000, Anthony founded Q Group as an additional arm of the CF Group of companies. Throughout his 20-plus years of experience he has had the opportunity to work with a diverse base of private and publicly held companies. As a sales professional, with a strong entrepreneurial drive, he saw the need to synergize corporate marketing efforts with their business development and/or sales efforts. Anthony's and Q Group's mission is to provide strong strategic marketing combined with effective sales process that will deliver a company's return on their marketing dollars.
