1936 French Stamats Publishers
Cedar Rapids, Iowa, native Herbert Stamats and Englishman Frank French founded a promotion and advertising agency for Midwest retail stores in 1923. Ten years later, they expanded the business with the addition of a national magazine. As their publishing business grew, so did the need for quality printing—so much so that in the 1940s, the company integrated a printing operation.
A few years later, creative services were added and colleges and universities who sought high-quality publications for their admissions departments began to take notice. Stamats soon found their niche serving the needs of higher education institutions across the country, and that specialization continues today.
As our clients’ needs evolve, so does our mix of services. Today’s talented Stamats’ professionals deliver strategically creative marketing programs that bring real results. Our services include market research, direct marketing, brand marketing, collateral, and interactive media.
And while no one can predict the future, it’s our passion to lead the way with original ideas that make a difference. Just as was the case more than 80 years ago, our clients and their needs ultimately drive our future.
