When Your Partner is Also Your Spouse: Adweek Profiles Design Army and HZ

Two of the region’s agencies are profiled in Adweek for their management teams that also happen to be husband and wife: Jake and Pum Lefebure of Design Army (above) and HZ’s Jerry and Karen Zuckerman (left).

“Building a successful business is no easy feat, and neither is sustaining a successful marriage,” according to Adweek. “Put the two together, and there are bound to be challenges and arguments every now and then. But there are a number of couples who run successful agencies together, because when two talented people with a rock-solid relationship and big ideas go into business together, things sometimes turn out great.”

See the full profiles on Adweek, where the other agency couples include Deacon and Frances Webster of Walrus, Franklin Tipton and Libby Brockhoff of Odysseus Arms, and Meg Donohoe and Mitch Paone of DIA.
