Brian helped me set up my hobby blog - (explaining everything, answering all of my questions, and helping me to work through setting up the site and photos). He was super knowledgeable, very professional, extremely prompt, and the quality of his work is excellent. I highly recommend him, and will be hiring him again in the future.

I was very impressed with Brian Sykes Marketing Plan. It was clear in terms of what the end state would look like, the timeline and the cost. The highlight was the development of Target Profiles, which identified each client type with the specific characteristics which have resonated to this day! It was a powerful exercise. Thank you Brian

I was so impressed with Brian and Trish. We had an hour long consultation on a new business start up. Their ideas and insights were exactly what I needed to get moving in the right direction. They worked well together and gave me some very constructive ideas that I am putting into practice. I can’t say enough positive things about my experience with them.

Brian is a class act. I had Brian create our logo close to 20 years ago when he first opened Ad Journey. It was a great move in my part. (The Plumbing Knight, Inc.) We set down and I told him exactly what I wanted, and he got it right on the first try. Brian is truly gifted in the advertising world. If you are in a business or just starting out, you had better have a logo! It has done wonders for our company. Thanks Brian!

I've taken multiple classes on business tactics and growth, and none of it came close to the fresh insights and targeted action steps that Brian and Trish provided during our consultation. I highly recommend AdJourney's services to anyone who wants to take their business to the next level.
