We help businesses succeed.

Since 2015, Janus Advertising has partnered with brands and agencies to create one-of-a-kind experiences, customized to fit each unique situation. Our process is smart and our people are among the brightest in our industry. Leaning into our 25+ years of “big agency” experience, we use our carefully developed project methodologies to create a consistent, efficient and effective experience for you and your business.

ABOUT OUR FOUNDER

Heather Janus Traum founded Janus Advertising after spending nearly 20 years in the “big agency” world. Working with some of the biggest names in advertising and marketing, she saw the industry evolve from print and offline media only, to a digital-centric ecosystem. She knows the ins and outs of the agency world, has a large network of “agency peeps”, and has a passion for both good branding and effective technology. A hometown girl from Bucks County, PA, Heather originally created Janus Advertising to help small and mid-size businesses in her area improve their market presence. From there, she quickly expanded her own presence to help other businesses and agency partners across the world realize their potential.

A double degree graduate of Penn State University, Heather has deep roots in business and project management, and is also a Partner/Owner of HQ Project Group, LLC. In her spare time she enjoys fostering for a local rescue with her partner and their “foster fail” family of dogs and cats.

Our Solutions

We fit where you need us.

Our clients are startups looking to make a name for themselves. They’re already-established brands who are ready to take themselves to the next level. They’re agencies who need no-strings-attached support to fill in the gaps in their capabilities or current staffing situation. They are all unique, but all have one thing in common: they rely on our expert team to support them where they need it the most.

Finding the right solution fuels us. Our team is nimble, solution-driven, and always looking for the best answer to hard questions.

Our solutions include:

Branding and Logo Design

Image is everything.

We know what it takes to build – and BE – a big brand. Brand equity is often overlooked as a necessity in business, but your brand is arguably your most important asset. It defines how the world views your company, products and services. When people see your brand as powerful, successful, and cohesive, they pay attention. They recognize your value. After all, you are the expert at what you do.

With our cohesive branding approach, your customers can see who you really are, and why they can’t spend another moment without you. Our time-tested strategic approach helps you build your brand equity with your every move.
