The Brainstorm Agency is the brainchild of Emily Young.
What started out as a solo-venture of offering graphic design services became a collection of small businesses that are run by Emily's family.
She still does graphic design, because she just can't help herself.
Dog Ear Books
Opened in 2016, this mother-daughter duo took on the responsibility of making sure their city still had a "soul". After Hastings shut down, there was no longer a new bookstore in the community. Dog Ear Books made sure that was a short-lived problem.
Now located at 312 W 2nd Street in Russellville, AR - Dog Ear Books is right in the Downtown area with a coffee shop, Retro Roasts, to boot!
Retro Roasts
Starting inside a retro-style arcade in the winter of 2018, Retro Roasts was born. The coffees are all named after historical people and places within Russellville, making sure people have a nice healthy dose of city knowledge with their cup of coffee.
Now located inside Dog Ear Books at 312 W 2nd Street in Russellville, AR.
