OUR ONLY GOAL IS TO HELP YOU WIN.
How It All Began.
Bourbon Media was founded in 2018 by co-owners Nick Krygsman and Garrett Shackelford, two outdoor enthusiasts who started making content for their own hunts out of sheer enjoyment. As they started to make connections with other small business owners in the outdoor space, they realized a lot of these businesses needed help emerging to the digital forefront. With their communications and marketing backgrounds and a genuine desire to help others in the outdoor industry, they started sharing their knowledge and offering their digital expertise. Soon, they realized they could help businesses grow and find new success by giving them a notable digital presence. With that, Bourbon Media was on the rise.
