Company Information :: History of CCI

Founded 1969

When, in 1969, Kay Dawson was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, she was forced to quit her current job and take a position at Wichita Word Processing. Five years later Wichita Word Processing was about to close their doors for good. Instead of changing careers again, Kay bought the company for an unbelievable $700.

The Largest Direct Mail Company In the Region

In 1974, Kay Dawson was the owner and only employee of Wichita Word Processing. She specialized in letters and resumes. In a few years her dedication to quality and customer satisfaction brought a volume of work that soon reached 500,000 pieces per year. From Wichita Word Processing was born Contemporary Communications, Inc. Kay's determination to stay ahead of both her competitors and technology has kept her on top of what has become the largest direct mail company in the region. By continually adding new equipment and people to keep up with the demands of her clients she has created a company that now boasts several million pieces mailed every month.

We have also developed an excellent relationship with the Wichita Post Office. The General Mail Facility in Wichita has rated #1 or #2 in mail delivery efficiency seven years straight.
