JR Promotions owns 1000 billboard faces in Indiana.  The company was started by Janeen Sprague in July of 1986.  She owned a Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant that relied on interstate billboards.   Janeen saw an opportunity to establish an outdoor advertising company with the goal of helping each customer succeed by offering high-quality, affordable signs. For her, the billboards proved to be a great tool to significantly grow business at her restaurant.  In the spring of 1988, Richard Sprague joined the company and focused on our growth and development.  In 2001, the company changed its name to JR Promotions LLC and began to grow aggressively through land lease development and acquisitions of smaller sign companies.
