the name

41 is a number of hope, prosperity, and most importantly: patience. This beautiful number graced the back of Skylar’s late father during his college football years. The number also holds great significance within the Bible, the book of Skylar’s Holy Father, on many occasions:

  • Jesus fasted for 40 days and 40 nights in the desert. The angels showed up for him on day 41.

  • The children of Israel wandered the desert for 40 years after the Exodus. The new generation entered The Promise Land on year 41.

  • Goliath tortured Israel for 40 days while looking for a match to fight. David came forward and defeated the giant on day 41.

Marketing takes that same sense of patience to see prosperity. There is no over night success when it comes to marketing success. You have to have a plan, you have to have a strategy, you have to have a vision. Vision 41 Marketing Agency hopes to help make those visions come true.

Previous companies worked with:

“Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.”

— Proverbs 29:18
