Crain Communications started modestly in Louisville, Kentucky, in 1916, with only three staff members publishing two papers, Class (which later became BtoB) and Hospital Management (later sold). The staff moved to Chicago later in 1916. It currently boasts over 1,000 employees in 19 locations.

The company is now headquartered at 1155 Gratiot Avenue in downtown Detroit.

By the late 1950s, the company provided life and medical insurance plans and pensions for its employees.

The company recently launched Crain's Manchester Business in the UK.

Rance E. Crain is currently the company president and is editor-in-chief for multiple publications, including Advertising Age. Keith Crain is chairman of the board and is the publisher for many of the publications. Other Crains are on the board as well.
