Marketing firm buys Perkins Road office for $380,000
BlinkJar Media, a Baton Rouge-based marketing agency, has purchased an office on Perkins Road and plans to move its operations there by January.
The company paid $380,000 for the 2,000-square-foot building at 1284 Perkins Road. The 99-year-old building was most recently owned by JCW Creative, a marketing and branding firm. JCW moved to Government Street earlier this year.
Jared Broussard, CEO and founder of BlinkJar, said the space was perfect for his business. “Over the last several years, we’ve been looking for a space that represents who we are as an inbound marketing agency and, at the same time, supports our vision of growth in the future,” he said in a statement.
BlinkJar Media specializes in search engine optimization, content creation, social media management, digital advertising and web design.
