Consulting Services…
Early in his career Milburn developed the skills to help business owners, public relations professionals, and marketing directors “think through” their projects. Often, clients need an “outsider” to listen to their story and marketing ideas to help them make more informed decisions. As a creative consultant Milburn has always been ready to listen and help.
The strength in Milburn’s design approach comes from his ability to work closely with clients, and develop solid ideas that become the foundation for every project. When possible, he strives to add warmth and personality to a client’s marketing materials with the firm belief that “People like doing business with people they like.”
On the lighter side of business…
“A picture is worth 1000 words.” It’s true! And often using humorous art is the best way to get your message across. It’s also one of the best ways to help you “Win Friends and Influence Customers.”

A unique perspective…
Milburn and his wife, Ruth, a newly retired Marketing Professor from Texas State University, have had the privilege of traveling throughout the United States, Canada, China, Japan, Mexico, England, Sweden, much of Europe, Morocco, Costa Rica, Peru, Ecuador, Guatemala, and most recently Oaxaca, Mexico. These travels have given him an appreciation of different cultures which helps when he undertakes advertising and design projects.

Milburn is an avid “wannabe” fly fisherman, and after 10+ years, is still an absolute novice. But he loves the sport anyway!
