Carnes Agency Marks One Year of Growth
Carnes Agency marked its first anniversary in 2026, following a year of significant growth across its client portfolio, team, and service offerings.
Founded in 2025 by Heather Carnes, the agency was built to provide strategic marketing, communications, and brand support to organizations navigating growth, change, and new opportunities. Over its first year, that work has expanded across hospitality, franchising, real estate, financial services, nonprofit organizations, and other business-to-business sectors.
Highlights from the agency’s first year include:
Expanding its client roster across hospitality, education, banking, real estate, nonprofit, and professional services.
Growing its capabilities across strategic advisory, public relations, digital marketing, branding, website development, social media, executive communications, and event management.
Supporting new company launches, brand development, website builds, franchise growth initiatives, thought leadership programs, and industry events.
Building a growing team of marketing, content, design, communications, and project management professionals.
Continuing to deepen Carnes Agency’s presence within the hospitality industry while expanding into adjacent sectors and new areas of expertise.
As Carnes Agency enters its second year, the firm remains focused on helping organizations and leaders strengthen their brands, communicate with clarity, and build marketing strategies that support long-term growth.
