Mike Alday
President
Mike opened Alday Public Relations at the age of 27 in 1996 following stints at two Nashville-based agencies. Under his guidance, Alday has grown into one of the leading firms in Middle Tennessee – and the largest in Franklin – with clients on the local, regional and national level. Mike is most proud of the long-term relationships with clients like Georgia Boot (since 1990), Durango Boot (since 1990), PGA of America (since 2004), Storage Systems Unlimited (since 2004) and others. This speaks to the quality of work and the ability to continue to bring fresh, effective strategies to the table.
Mike is also very involved as a leader in the community (a trait he got from his mom). He was a founder of Franklin Tomorrow and sits on the board of Williamson, Inc. In 2017, he was a founding member and first president of the Downtown Franklin Rotary Club, one of the fastest growing clubs in the country. He is currently in the Leadership Franklin class of 2020.
When he’s not working or traveling to see his kids, Mike can most likely be found on the golf course (just ask his wife, Tiffany).
Tiffany Alday
Partner
Tiffany partnered with her husband Mike to form Alday in 1996. While Mike handles the client side, Tiffany takes care of the business operations, including HR, accounts payable, accounts receivable and more.
Additionally, in 2015, Tiffany founded PlayAlday, which serves as an outlet for her creative and entrepreneurial strengths. PlayAlday creates exclusive (and licensed) products for sororities. Tiffany has been providing Bid Day boxes for new sorority members since 2016 and now ships products across the country every day.
Tiffany enjoys traveling to see her kids in New York and San Francisco and taking trips with her friends. She’s also been known to binge watch a show or two over a weekend.
