Our Team
Lisa Wilkins
Founder & President
While attending UW-Madison, Lisa knew she wanted to run her own agency. She also knew that in order to benefit her future clients, she’d need some experience first, and found herself immersed in the world of radio advertising for many years. Eventually, she was asked by one of her clients to became a marketing manager for a large restaurant chain, serving restaurants in several states. (She will never share this with you, but sales increased by more than 30% her first year on the job). She also spent many years working for a large marketing agency before she decided she was ready to spread her wings, and dive into what she really loved…working directly with small to medium-size businesses on increasing their bottom line.
When not working, Lisa can often be found volunteering in the community. She started The Bed Lady Project in 2008, providing a bed and bedding to children that had previously been homeless. She works with Sunshine Place in Sun Prairie on marketing efforts and fundraising. She spends her free time at their fixer-upper on Lake Wisconsin, kayaking just about anywhere, following local soccer games, and feels that baking is her best form of relaxation…something the whole office appreciates! Lisa is a mom to three grown children, and just celebrated her 34th wedding anniversary with her husband, Geoff.
Julie Hustad
Graphic Designer
Julie started working as a graphic designer in a small East Side printing shop right out of college, where she learned the ins/ outs and nuances of the printing industry. From there she moved into publishing, as the art director and graphic designer for JOY Publications working on Giggle Magazine, the Home Planner & Guide, and the Wedding Planner & Guide. Almost 10 years after, she struck out on her own – and has been freelancing graphic design work and mural painting for almost 20 years.
Julie’s graphics skills have her busy with logo creation, designing print pieces, signage, packaging materials, and her very favorite – advertising. She has done murals for Parade Homes, the Monona Public Library, Verona Public Library, several businesses, and private residences – as well as completing a cow for the 2006 Cow Parade (which now resides in the DeForest Public Library), and two Bucky statues for the 2018 Bucky On Parade. She has been commissioned to paint on canvas, metal, wood, signage, and claims, “For the most part, I’ll paint on anything!”
For the past 8 years or so, Julie has also been welding and creating scrap metal sculptures. She’s creating her own personal zoo and has completed a buffalo, octopus, ram, wolf, elephant, lion, giraffe, foxes, owl, various fish, a peacock…and some giant flowers.
Julie and her husband of 34 years are now thoroughly enjoying their 2 grandchildren who live just a couple of houses down from them.
