Happy Birthday to Mopdog!
140 years in the industry and going stronger than ever—well, 140 in dog years that is!
2012 marks Mopdog Creative + Strategy’s 20th year anniversary (140 in dog years). For all of our new friends and clients, here is a little history of where it all began!
Our president, Bill Musial, comes from a long line of entrepreneurs. His dad owned his own business, his dad’s dad owned his own business, his mom’s dad owned his own business, and so on. So, it was no surprise when he wanted to start his own company.
After receiving a Fine Arts degree, Bill worked as a freelance graphic design artist for about 6 years. Bill quickly gained more clientele than one man could handle. He realized he needed a team, and so William Musial Advertising, Inc. was born. But, that name didn’t last long. Sitting in his home office Bill and his then two employees would joke, “it was just them and the Mopdogs” (Bill’s family shitzus, or “office mascots.”) They soon realized clients took notice of this office joke nicknamed the team. This was the beginning of the Mopdog brand!
Eventually, the home office proved to be too small for the growing company. Mopdog moved to a small office in Acworth and ultimately ended up in their current 2860 square foot dog-themed office. Bill and the Mopdog Pack couldn’t be happier with their growth and present status!
