We show up beyond the client work.
Lightburn's leaders take the stage at conferences, sit on panels, and guest on the podcasts where B2B marketers actually pay attention.
We're practitioners first — so what we speak on is what we do every day: B2B digital strategy, platform and CMS decisions, and marketing for complex and manufacturing brands. Putting together a stage, a panel, or an episode? Let's find the right fit.
Scott Wintheiser CEO, Founding Partner
Topics: B2B digital strategy, CMS & platform, Manufacturing marketing
I'm the CEO and co-founder of Lightburn, a Milwaukee digital agency. We help mid-size manufacturers and growth-stage businesses improve their digital customer experience, streamline their tech stacks, and build websites and marketing strategies that drive results — right-sized for their teams and budgets. In our early days the tools we needed didn't exist, so we built them: a custom CMS and ecommerce platform from scratch. I've also founded and sold multiple ecommerce businesses along the way.
Nora Lahl COO, Partner
Topics: Agency Operations, Leadership, Change Management
Nora is the COO of Lightburn, where she has spent 15 of her over 20 years in the industry. She started her career as a print production artist and made the leap from picas to pixels early, joining Lightburn as a project manager before moving into strategy and eventually operations.
Nora studied PR and philosophy at Marquette University. The combination stuck, a practical client-service orientation balanced by a habit of asking tough questions for the sake of getting to the heart of a problem.
At Lightburn, Nora focuses on enabling people to do their best work. She manages the team and leads the agency's internal evolution, whether that means rolling out a new service, building a new role, or pushing until a process actually works. She values open, candid communication and knows that sometimes sweating the small stuff can have a real impact on the big picture.
