The partners of Hughes Advertising Agency, Mike and Mary Genge, and Bulldog Design, John Lyons and Ike Erickson, are excited to announce the merger of their two agencies to create HUB Creative Group, effective January 1, 2012.
“Merging the marketing and advertising expertise of Hughes with the print and multi-media expertise of Bulldog was a no-brainer”, says John Lyons. “Both agencies are known for creativity, so by bringing us together we create a multi-talented agency that can serve our customers better than ever before.”
“The name HUB Creative Group represents the joining of Hughes and Bulldog, but what is really important is that we are creating a hub of creative talent at one location,” says Mary Genge. “Under one roof we offer our clients 26 years of marketing and advertising experience along with graphic design for print and web, search engine optimization and social media. And let’s not forget in-house printing and production services that improve turn-around time.”
Ike Erickson is especially excited about the team of graphic artists and web designers that HUB Creative Group offers. “We have four, highly talented graphic designers and two website developers who, working together will create some amazing materials. We will raise the bar both locally and regionally and it’s all good for our clients. We are already meeting with clients in Toronto who want to see what our integrated services can do for them.”
“We know Chatham-Kent is evolving into a different kind of community…one with skills that are comparable to other thriving agri-urban areas. HUB Creative Group is going to be a part of that and leading the parade,” says Mike Genge. “We are not only amalgamating skills, we are unifying two centres of creative energy into one hub that will serve a broad scope of businesses and organizations. Call me. Let me show you what we can do for you.”
