The Willkommen Committee recently visited to welcome Forward Minded Media as a new member of the New Ulm Area Chamber of Commerce. Forward Minded Media, so named because President/Founder Jake has four kids and last name Ward, is a full-service marketing agency. They provide all marketing needs, not just creating advertisements and running marketing campaigns, but also logos, websites, and more. As they say, “if you want your brand seen, felt, heard, shaved into the side of a goat,” they’ve got you covered. Literally – they will shave your brand into the side of a goat – but there’s a waitlist for that. Forward Minded Media likes to be “thinking ahead so your business doesn’t fall behind.” Even if you just have an idea that you need help fleshing out, they are there to help and want to be able to support their clients however they can and not be “pushy salespeople.” Jake and his team have already been working with several New Ulm businesses and organizations. They are excited to grow in this market and they are happy to be a part of the Chamber organization.
Located at 40 Good Counsel Drive in Mankato, if you’re interested in learning more, visit https://www.forwardmindedmedia.com/ or call (612) 440-9040. Thank you, Forward Minded Media, for choosing to join the New Ulm Chamber!
