Craig Karmazin founded Good Karma Brands in 1997 with the purchase of three radio stations in Beaver Dam, Wisconsin. Shortly thereafter, he was fortunate that a number of his childhood friends decided to join him – they hosted radio shows, passed out t-shirts, sold advertising and talked sports both on and off the air (some things don’t change). This is where our story begins – Good Karma Brands began as a broadcasting company, where we learned the power of local marketing and strong community relationships. As the company grew through ESPN affiliated radio stations, we quickly became a Best Practices leader within ESPN Audio, and soon found ourselves shifting from a traditional radio company, and into a sports marketing company – finding new and unique solutions and sponsorships to activate for local advertising partners. Good Karma has expanded into new industries, including events and home solutions, and is always fueled by the desire to do things differently, align with premium brands and offer customized solutions for fans, partners and consumers. In 2015, the relationship with ESPN was expanded, as we could now offer local advertisers access to ESPN`s digital assets within our markets. A short three years later, and driven by the success of our partners and local advertisers desire for ESPN`s premium brand-safe environment, that agreement was extended to include additional markets outside of our radio footprint. Good Karma Brands continues in our expansion phase, both in broadcasting with the acquisition of WTMJ in Milwaukee, and through our ESPN digital markets throughout the country. And while we`ve been around for over 20 years, we pride ourselves on behaving much like we did back in 1997, as an entrepreneurial start-up, focused on getting results for local advertisers and having fun with our friends.

We began in 1876 in Chicago as the N.M. Johnson Company, “Blank Book Manufacturers and Book Binders.” About the same time as General George Custer and his troops were defeated in the Battle of Little Bighorn in the Montana Territory, our first advertisement appeared in the 1876-77 Chicago Business Directory. When Thomas Stephen Quin joined the company in 1896, the business was renamed Johnson and Quin. Throughout the years, Johnson and Quin has prospered by deploying the latest technologies and adapting to the changing marketplace. The company led the introduction of laser printing to the Midwest in 1979, which soon transformed Johnson and Quin into a full-service direct mail production company. We offer the latest in direct mail production, integrated marketing solutions, data services and personalization technologies, cutting-edge printing with both laser and ink jet printers, and certified data security practices. The innovation, flexibility, and solid financial credentials that propelled us throughout our 139-year history remains at the core of the way we work today.
