Where Ideas and Action Connect
ABOUT US
For over 29 years, we’ve been providing our clients with fresh, innovative ideas.
Creativity is the cornerstone of our full-service marketing and graphics communications company. We’ve built our business on a creative process that turns ideas into action. We listen to our clients. We take the time to fully understand the unique nature and specific goals of every client before we start, and throughout the entire project. We are committed to providing first-rate client service—one of the reasons our many longstanding clients keep coming back.
Our diverse client base with widely differing needs, are made up of local, regional and international companies with members of the corporate, public and non-profit sectors.
We’re not a large agency with a big overhead. When you hire us, you’ll work with the people who own the company, backed by the specialized expertise of appropriate associates. That means our fees stay competitive.

I have worked with Chris McCorkindale and Sue Breen for more than a decade. What has impressed me most is their combination of creativity and imagination coupled with commitment to detail and perfection. Add to this the confidence that not only will the final product be one of which I will be proud, but that it will also be brought to completion on time and within budget. They are an author’s delight. Not an easy task, but they excel and have always gone beyond my expectations. -
