Family-Owned Advertising and Design Agency Leading a Highly Trained Crew
Ablaze Media is a professional, full-service graphic design agency founded by Mark Stafford. Mark is a graduate of Arizona Christian University (formerly Southwestern College). He runs Ablaze Media with his wife, Lara Stafford, and his brother, Tim Stafford. Ablaze Media also employs the services of several Prescott-based SEO/web professionals as well as copywriters. The Ablaze Media studio is physically located in Prescott, but our customers come to us from all over the world.
Experienced, Local Professionals
From logo creation to graphic design to digital advertising, we can handle it. Small Business websites are one of our specialties. Our creative services staff has years of experience working for various media outlets and agencies around the country.
Some of our staffers have previously worked for churches or non-profit organizations so we really understand the unique needs of non-profit organizations. The Ablaze staff has decades of experience with small business owners, CEO’s, educational institutions, and non-profits/churches. We understand what it takes for each of these groups to get noticed in a world of noisy marketing.
Let Us Handle Your Media
Whether you are located here in Yavapai County or somewhere else in the world, we can take care of what your media needs. Ablaze Media’s core values are based upon a couple of simple things: quality design, competitive prices, and integrity. We deliver professional products, we deliver on time and we always honor our bids.
