About Muskoka Graphics

Good work starts with believing in people

Muskoka Graphics began in 2005, when our founder, Mark Wigston, was preparing to leave a role as Marketing Manager and Information Technology Manager for a large group of RE/MAX brokerages.

At the time, starting a business felt like a bigger leap than finding another job. Then a good friend, David Reid, offered a little perspective: “You have everything you need to start your own business. The only person who doesn’t have confidence in you is you.”

David was right. What began as one person’s leap of faith grew into a business built around helping other people take their own ideas further.

Today, I’m Marlene (Marley) Wigston, and I still believe the best work begins by listening. A business might need a website that brings in enquiries, printed materials that make a strong first impression, or dependable technical help when something goes wrong. We bring design, marketing, web development, printing and IT experience together to help make those pieces work for the people who rely on them.

Over the years, both the business and I have grown. My transition has been part of finding the confidence and happiness to live more fully as myself. There’s something especially lovely about getting to do that while helping other business owners find what makes their work shine. David’s advice still feels relevant: sometimes people already have more going for them than they realize. They just need someone in their corner who can see it, and put it down on paper or on a web page.

A friendly face—or a wagging tail

If you visit our Gravenhurst office, you may also meet my dogs, Riley and Lucy. They’re often here with me, bringing a calming presence to busy days and a warm welcome to visitors. Some customers even drop by just to see the dogs. We understand completely.

That friendly atmosphere is part of who we are. We take our clients’ businesses seriously, but we want working together to feel comfortable, honest and human. Whether you have a clear plan or an idea you’re still working out, you can come in, talk it through, and know we’ll care about the result.

When we coach customers to win, everyone wins.
