Chris Hanna is the co-founder and president of TSM Agency. With more than two decades in marketing, branding, and staffing strategy, he leads national operations and client development, tying every booking to the leads and outcomes clients actually measure.
Chris has spent his career building companies that put brands in front of the right audience. He founded Atomic Design, an award-winning digital marketing agency, in 1996, and co-founded TSM Agency with his wife, Caryn, in 2005. A former model himself, he pairs firsthand event experience with a marketer's view of what a booth is actually for: pipeline.
At TSM, Chris leads national operations and client development. His background in marketing, branding, and staffing strategy shapes how the agency scales and how clients measure return, so a booking is judged on the leads and coverage it produces, not just the people standing at the booth. That discipline is why exhibitors from global brands to first-time startups trust TSM to represent them.
Based in the Nashville, Tennessee area, Chris brings a data-driven, ROI-focused approach to a people-first business. TSM Agency is woman-owned, a member of Meeting Professionals International, and rated 5.0 on Google.
Chris writes and speaks on event marketing, staffing strategy, and turning booth traffic into measurable pipeline.
