Yakkety Yak Marketing

Founded in 2014 by CEO Ashley Logan, Yakkety Yak Marketing is a Chicago-area agency based in Hinsdale, Illinois, operating as a certified woman-owned business. It positions itself as a full-service marketing partner for purpose-driven and social justice-oriented organizations, having worked with clients such as the Chicago Zoological Society (Brookfield Zoo), Cara Chicago, and Ashland Breast Pumps. The team is small, with one to ten members, and describes its role as acting as an extension of a client's own team or an outsourced CMO. The agency's core offering centers on content creation and branding, including blogs, print materials, and social and email campaigns tailored to a client's audience. It also provides custom website design and development aimed at improving user experience and lead conversion, alongside virtual event production and content strategy sessions. Video production is a notable specialty, framed around increasing audience retention and impact through visual storytelling. SEO and lead generation work begins with keyword research and content built to address both users and search engines. Additional listed services include pay-per-click advertising, digital strategy, and social media marketing, with the agency describing its approach as thinking through content, design, and promotion together rather than treating each as a separate function.
