kers Media, located in Leesburg, Florida, is one of Central Florida’s most award-winning companies and was ranked 23 in Inc. Magazine’s fastest growing media companies nationwide in 2014. Our multiple award-winning, full-service agency is built on an unbeatable approach to marketing. First, we listen. Really listen. You’re not just a client; you’re part of the Akers family. We’re not happy until you’re 100 percent satisfied. Second, we’ll meet and exceed your expectations with creativity and painstaking attention to detail. We do one job at a time, giving our full attention to your needs to tell a compelling story. Third, we’re diverse. Need a stunning logo people won’t forget? No problem. Thinking of a multi-media campaign to announce a new product or business? Piece of cake. No job is too small.
