One Lucky Guitar

About Us

We’re a boutique creative agency headquartered in downtown Fort Wayne, Indiana. Our mission statement is “We communicate brand soul”—and we do it with our hearts on our sleeves and a “just because it hasn’t been done doesn’t mean it can’t be done” spirit.

We work with people we trust, for people we respect, and we do work we believe in. We’ll always deliver our best, with a commitment to service, integrity and creative excellence.
