Those folks at Osborn & Barr are still adding to the fold. They also like to send out releases announcing a whole bunch of new folks (or ones getting promoted). So I’ll try to cover them all in one post.
AAAA Conference Blogged
No image here. I know I usually have something but you just don’t always have to. I hope you got something out of my blogging the Ag Media Summit. Love to know what you think. I will still have some content to present when time allows. As I was checking my feeds tonight I came across a link to an interesting blog you might want to visit. It was pointed out on Adfreak. They turned me on to Russell Davies, an account planner. He just blogged the AAAA Account Planning Conference in Chicago. Looks like he did a good job. I can relate!
ZimmCast With Gary Myers
One of the seminars at the Ag Relations Council meeting focused on “Ethics in Public Relations” and one of the panelists was Gary Myers, founder and past president of Morgan & Myers. Gary is still providing council to the agency. I spoke with him about his thoughts on this subject and his suggestions for young people entering the profession.
New John Deere Business For Osborn & Barr
Osborn & Barr has obviously been doing a good job for John Deere.
Monsanto’s YGPL Root Reports Hit The Airwaves
This isn’t the first year they’ve done it but they’re doing it a little differently this year. That is they’re using ZimmComm to pre-record interviews with growers and technical representative for a series of radio reports. They’re Osborn & Barr for their client, Monsanto, and the reports are about YieldGard Plus with a focus on corn plant root conditions.
How Emotional Branding Creates Winners
The folks at Osborn & Barr Communications are using the power of the internet to distribute an electronic newsletter about their agency. In the latest issue you can find some case studies as well as an article on emotional branding.
Announcements From The Hale Group
Jon Holt Joins The Hale Group – Industry Veteran Will Serve Growing West Coast Clients
Krenz Promoted At Bader Rutter
I don’t have a picture of his happy face or I’d post it. He just sent me an email the other day about a newspaper article on how your cute little blog can get you fired.
O&B Lands New Client
It’s not an ag account but they’re an “ag” agency and this is big news for them. So that’s why it’s worth noting. Diversification is good.
New Public Relations Director At Bader Rutter
It sounds like Larry has been a busy guy. He must have been doing something right to keep moving up the promotional ladder!
