Our Story

What We Stand For

01 Anything is Possible

The belief that anything is truly possible fuels our creativity and approach to every aspect of what we do at Wakeen & Company. No idea is too crazy ... okay, some are ... but there is also a nugget of a possibility in them too. Bring on the impossible and let's make a plan to bring it to reality!

02 Unlocking True Potential

Finding the value in each person, story, opportunity, concept and then moving the "tumblers" of strategy to release it is what drives us. If you feel stuck, then maybe we can help find the right combo to unlock your organization's potential.

03 Truth, Humility, Grace

If it's not true, doesn't allow others to grow and doesn't create a space for someone to be heard and/or seen, then it has no place at Wakeen. Period.

04 Helping People Be Intentional

Someone once defined intentionality as doing the next right thing ... but what if you don't know what that thing is? We wake up everyday excited to help our clients and our team define how to move forward with intention. Action steps to unlock true potential and make it all possible!

Our Partners

Community is it the core of who we are. We are passionate about engaging with organizations in the Greater Harrisburg Region where we live, work, and play. As a marketing agency in Harrisburg we find ourselves in a unique position to help other businesses increase their visibility through strategic communications and video production.
