Arthur Agency

09/17/2025

We enjoyed our visitors this morning. It was an honor to visit and talk shop.

This morning, Jackson CEO had the opportunity to visit Arthur Agency, a full-service marketing and advertising company right here in Carbondale, IL, owned and operated by Dennis Poshard. We were also joined by our very own Nicole Gray, CEO Board Member, who is part of the Arthur Agency team.

Arthur Agency partners with local businesses and beyond to help market, brand, campaign, and advertise their vision. One of the coolest stories we heard was about their work with actor Michael Rooker from Guardians of the Galaxy on the Driving Dead campaign for the State of Illinois! 🚗🎬

We’re grateful for the warm welcome, great conversation—and yes, the donuts 🍩. Thank you for inspiring us with your creativity and innovation!

Great team effort between Arthur and a cool, cool partner, Honey Heist Mead Co with design led by our Art Director, the incomparable and untaggable, Joe Goetting. HH makes some amazing stuff. So do we. We paired well. Thanks.

So here’s a first! Arthur Agency just won a national silver Addy award at the American Advertising Federation for their branding of Honey Heist Mead Co.

Our board members Bridget Baumann Lescelius and Ashleigh Spence are at the AAF conference in Salt Lake City and wish more of our local advertising creatives were here too. Carbondale was the only rural area to win. So let’s brand together and build on this!
