Buzz Monkeys

Based in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, in the Milwaukee area, Buzz Monkeys, Inc. has operated as a marketing communications firm since 1998. The company is a small team of ten or fewer people, led by President and Founder Mary M. Roberts alongside Vice President Vicky Shokatz. Its stated focus is on helping clients build brand loyalty and generate results through communications programs designed to engage target audiences, positioning the firm as a problem-solver for marketing challenges faced by its clients in the Midwest region. The agency's declared service list spans Search Engine Optimization, Branding, Content Marketing, Web Design, Event Management, and Public Relations, reflecting an integrated communications approach rather than a single specialism. The website frames its work around the concept of "buzz" — creating conversation and connection around a client's story as a means of driving engagement. Beyond this thematic framing, the site does not detail specific methodologies, campaign types, or industry sectors served, presenting the firm instead as a full-service communications shop offering combined PR, branding, and digital services under one roof.
