Gregory P. Muzzillo founded Proforma in 1978 with a college friend. Within one year, the business they started with $200 grew to $250,000 and its client base to more than 300. By 1982, sales reached $1 million and Proforma was named in successive years to Inc. Magazine’s 500 Fastest Growing Companies - the only company in the business forms industry named to the list twice.

To continue Proforma's rapid growth, Muzzillo developed the Proforma franchise model in 1986 - a network of independent distributors working together to build marketing clout and strong supplier relationships. This model proved successful, as Proforma, now in its fourth decade, has grown to a $500 million organization.

Proforma CNR Marketing, based in Dayton, OH, was founded in 1998 by Ron Muzechuk. Ron started out in the printing business in Chicago, but came back to Ohio to start the Proforma venture. He has teamed up with his daughter Nicole Merkle. Together, they and their team provide creative solutions to businesses around the nation.
