Who We Are

At Yakima Branding (aka YB Marketing), we are more than a marketing agency — we are your dedicated partner in business growth and brand success. Our team of marketing professionals combines creativity with strategy to deliver solutions that elevate your brand, strengthen your message, and drive measurable results.

Our founder, Kevin Dean, started WSI Net Advantage in 2003, specializing as an early expert in SEO and online advertising. In 2020, Kevin acquired Yakima Branding to expand our client base and extend services across the West Coast and beyond.

Since then, we've continued to grow as trusted partners for businesses seeking clarity in branding and excellence in marketing execution. With more than 20 years of experience, we've helped hundreds of businesses sharpen their brand identity and messaging, ensuring they stand out in competitive markets.

What truly sets us apart is our commitment to exceptional customer service. We respond quickly — by the next business day — and provide thoughtful answers, clear insights, and actionable strategies. We believe an educated client is a successful client.
