Working with the Best in Jax
In 2008, when Wingard Creative first opened for business, our goal was to work with the best clients in Jacksonville. We had no idea that only eight years later, our client list would be filled with our favorite restaurants, cultural institutions, business leaders, and insurers.
Last week, Jacksonville Magazine published its “Best in Jax” issue, and we were once again reminded how lucky we are to work with such high-caliber clients. The magazine pages were lined with past and present clients and friends – 23 in total. Some of our work for these companies has included one-off branding and design, while for others we have provided long-term web development, marketing, PR, and social media management services.
Regardless of what we’ve done for each client, we are so proud to have contributed in some small way to their becoming the “Best in Jax.” Congratulations to this year’s winners!
