WHO WE ARE
218 Creative is founded and led by Justina Cerra Lucas, a marketing professional by day and cat mom by night. With over a decade of experience in marketing across industries ranging from nonprofit to Hollywood entertainment and everywhere in between, she found that her favorite people to work with are other creative small business owners. She's been around long enough to bring thoughtful strategy to the table and knows that marketing doesn't necessarily have to be complicated in order for it to be successful. Empowering others to be able to carry out their marketing confidently is her jam.
​
Although she is called "BossStina" (by literally only one person, but maybe it will become a thing?), she can't do it all. When it comes to clients who need more specific expertise or a little extra hands-on work, she works with a team of trusted collaborators to get the job done. As part of the creative community right alongside you, we know that collaboration is what makes our work the most powerful.
