Surrounded by Excellence

I had the pleasure of working with Doug Ducey for 8 years during Cold Stone Creamery’s growth from a relatively unknown concept with only a handful of stores, to a powerhouse brand of over 1400 locations. I have worked with Doug Ducey as a franchisee, an area-developer, and as a valued member of the Executive Team. Doug is one of the most passionate, visionary, and dedicated leaders I have ever worked with, and he possesses a special gift for uniting people of diverse viewpoints into a focused course of action that creates success for all. I can think of no greater application for this talent than getting our Great State of Arizona back on track. Doug has my full support and unconditional endorsement, and I know that he will help lead us to a brighter tomorrow for every Arizonan!

By Building Friendships, You Serve the Community

Doug Ducey and his family were very warm and nice to me when I moved to their neighborhood. Not only they were welcoming but the Ducey's introduced me to new friends and people I could learn from. It always impressed me how a man as busy as he was, could create the time to play with his kids in the afternoons and finish a meeting saying he had to go because he had a date with his wife. Doug would always help people whether it was finding money for a scholarship, or mentoring to become financially free. I believe a man with Doug Ducey's experience, intelligence, high morals, education and a true desire to serve others has a lot to give to this country.

Arizona needs Doug Ducey as State Treasurer

We've known Doug Ducey through ASU and through Community Events, and he is one "bright" fellow. Doug will bring knowledge, enthusiasm, business experience, and the ability to work with others to the State Treasurer's office. Another nice thing is that Doug is not a career politician, rather he is a successful businessman, which is exactly what Arizona needs today.

Doug Ducey is one of the best leaders I've met in my career and travels. His focus on solving problems, integrity in dealing with people and commitment to executing flawlessly are all traits I admire. Arizona would do well to have his skills focused on solving our financial problems.
