Started in 1984, Sally Poole began Poole Advertising out of her home. As business and her client base grew, she opened an office in Hannibal in 1993 in the old St. Elizabeth's building on Virginia street. A few years later she added her first two employees, Fay Hendren and Rose Anne Huck. Not long after, they moved to a larger location at 201 North Third in the old Standard Printing building. A few years later, they broke out a wall and expanded to half of the first floor. Then in 2007, Sally bought the building at 108 North Third and moved the office there after renovating the entire space. Today, the company has grown to specialize in web, print and video. They work with companies that want to grow their business through careful strategy, creativity and tracking results.
