The Sumner Group is more than just an ad agency. We’re a bunch of people who really like each other and really like doing good work for our clients. That’s something we’ve been doing for more than 20 years. The Sumner Group was formed by Michael D. Sumner in 1987 with the idea of serving as Gaston County, North Carolina’s only full-service advertising agency. Over the ensuing years, our work has continued to evolve, innovate and expand; helping The Sumner Group to be a nationwide leader in smart advertising, marketing, design and public relations. We offer more areas of expertise now than at any time in the more than two decades of our existence. We know how to cut our way through the jungle in a crowded marketplace. Our success lies in knowing you, your business and your industry. Once we determine what it is that places you above your competition, we have the knowledge and skill to put a plan in action using every avenue available to us.
