Walking Billboard Promotions
A full-service advertising specialties company, Walking Billboard Promotions offers a wide range of promotional items for companies. Custom products include apparel, bags, trophies and plaques, drinkware, chairs, blankets, umbrellas, golf items and much more. A 100% women-owned business, Walking Billboard Promotions is led by Karyl Krugley.
“Being a women-owned business means embodying empowerment, resilience and breaking barriers,” Krugley said. “It signifies ownership, leadership and vision shaped by diverse perspectives and experiences. It means contributing to a more inclusive economy by fostering opportunities for women in business, inspiring future generations and creating a workplace that values equality and innovation.” Further, she noted, the women-owned business status is a source of pride, representing strength and determination.
According to Krugley, the biggest challenges a woman-owned business can face include access to funding, gender bias and work-life balance. “Establishing credibility in industries dominated by men has required extra effort to overcome stereotypes and gain acceptance,” she said. Given these challenges, access to supportive networks and mentorship is crucial for business success, she added.
On a positive note, Krugley has found that having a women-owned business provides opportunities for innovation, collaboration and advocacy. Further, Krugley and her company show commitment to contributing to the diversity and resilience of the business community, paving the way for future generations of women entrepreneurs.
Recently, Walking Billboard Promotions has expanded its customers base both geographically and across additional industries.
