: about us

Who are we?

We are an Asheville-based advertising agency whose roots go back to 1972. We have broad experience in the creation and production of advertising in newspaper, outdoor and broadcast media. We have an experienced staff of marketing professionals who have more than 100 years of advertising experience.

What do we do?

Our clients are in a variety of businesses, from banking to real estate, from the practice of law to dry cleaning. We work with both non-profit and for-profit organizations. We don't require retainers or long-term contracts. We're happy to provide references and proposals, upon request.

How do we think

Our philosophy is to measure our success by the achievements of our clients. Most of our clients have been with us more than fifteen years. They stay with us because we work hard to understand and fulfill their unique needs.

The bottom line

We create marketing and advertising programs that work, programs that pay off in the checkbook.

Two years ago, a 39-minute interview led to a $60 million gain in non-interest deposits for a North Carolina community bank.

(Do the math: if the bank paid nothing for the deposits, but earned, say a 4% spread, that's $2.4 million into income. Not too shabby.)

Even more recently, a 15-minute meeting with a leading North American construction equipment manufacturer resulted in a franchise expansion program that has brought the company $100 million in increased equipment sales.
