Some tragic news we wanted to make you aware of..
Phil Longnecker was the owner and founder of Cutting Edge Media. Phil built CEM from a 2 man operation to a multimillion dollar international success story. At one time CEM was providing advertising to every major home based business company in the US and to many companies outside the US. Unfortunately Phil passed away Saturday night in a car accident. Phil’s dream was to be the leading advertising agency/lead production company in the Home Based Business industry. Phil, no doubt, met and exceeded that goal and his legacy will live on for years to come. He had a huge heart and always gave back to his community. He treated his employees like family and he treated his clients with honor and respect. Phil set an amazing example as a 2%’er and a business owner.
He had so much love to give and never ceased to give it. On a visit to their company offices a while back Jackie and Renae were told several stories about Phil, the way he looked out for his employees and gave back to the community. One such story was that Phil often considered the employees at CEM his personal friends and an extenstion of his family. From time to time he would host all of the employees and their family at his house. Phil, had a special place in his heart for kids. He didn't want the kids to be bored having a good time. He wanted to make sure the kids enjoyed their time as well, so he would hire a petting zoo to come in and set up at his house (on his manicured lawn) so the kids would have something entertaining to do.
Another time a couple of years ago around Christmas. Phil, came into the offices at CEM and told his sales staff it was time to go shopping. He gave one of them a blank check and told them to go to K-Mart and buy the whole toy department! They did and all of the toys were donated to "Toys For Tots" an organization close to Mr. Longnecker's heart. We will all surely miss him. He loved Cutting Edge Media and was an incredibly smart entrepreneur. In his savvy wisdom Phil had prepared for such an event as this, so Cutting Edge Media will live on as will Phil’s legacy. Cutting Edge Media, as a company will continue to prosper and grow!
