Burnsville Design Agency Certified As Majority Woman-Owned

BURNSVILLE, MN — Neon Lizard Creative Marketing & Design LLC, a design agency with an office in Burnsville, was recently certified by the Women's Business Enterprise National Council as being a majority woman-owned and led business.

NLC has been woman-owned and led since its 1998 inception in Arizona, the agency said. Since the agency's rebirth, it now has six stateside designers, NLC said.

WBENC awarded the certification to the agency on Friday, after the agency had moved into its Burnsville office off of McAndrews Road West, NLC said.

NLC also recently graduated from Technology Village, which is Scott County's incubator program, after it had tripled in size and receiving mentorship, recognition and subsidized office space, the agency said.

"Head Lizard" Rebecca Rausch was inspired to apply for certification after being accepted onto Women Entrepreneurs of Minnesota BOD, the agency said.

“It felt like — the next right step,” Rausch said. “Our clientele loves the diversity and
talent of our designers, plus the fact we serve on heart-based principles. In addition,
our multi-faceted product menu is ideal for corporations who need a full-service,
fractional team to support their marketing efforts. By being WBENC certified, we are
now able to help a wider variety of businesses reach their marketing goals.”

NLC has also been listed in in Agency Spotter and rewarded by UpCity in the past two years for being a top agency in the state in serving B2B and B2C industries, the agency said.
