So What’s Next?

Well dear readers, it’s your turn. I’d like to hear from you — what would you like to see and/or read about here?

Granted, events, job openings, new hires and such are a given – those will always be part of the coverage. But what else would you like to see or know more about? Work that various shops have been doing lately? Industry trends? Loosely related news with a local spin?

It’s your turn – fire away.

And…We’re Back

After a brief hiatus (but we did put the house lights on a timer, thankfully) we now resume our regularly-scheduled programming.

Among the updates coming down the line: New job listings, new hires, notable news and research, available talent and more.

Stay tuned.

The things that happen when we’re not paying attention

For regular readers of the Idaho Ad Agencies blog, you’ve not doubt noticed that updates and new posts have been few and far between.  Or, at the very least, they haven’t kept up with the pace that you’ve come to expect from this site.

Even though that’s been the case as of late, there have still been quite a few things happening in and around the marketing, advertising and communications industry.  Here’s just a sampling:

SOVRN Creative added a new staff member recently.

SOVRN also won a National Silver ADDY Award for their work on Todd Meier’s “Rapture in Six Cantos” Direct Mail, and completed several spots for the “Go On” campaign from the J.A. and Kathryn Albertson Foundation.

Red Sky Public Relations welcomed two new folks to their team in the past month or so.

Both the Boise Advertising Federation and AIGA Idaho look to be ramping up events for the season.  The Magic Valley Advertising Federation is also maintaining an active schedule, and the Eastern Idaho Advertising Federation looks to be picking up as well.

All in all, there’s a lot going on these day, with more yet to come.

Even if some half-rate hack blogger isn’t covering it nearly as much as they should…

Writer’s Block

Every once in a while I get a serious case of writer’s block when it comes to this site.  Happens every year and a half or so.  And I’m waist-deep into a good bout of it right now, to the point that I even had to bow out of submitting a guest article (not something I wanted to do or am proud of, mind you).

So, I’m stepping away from it all for a few days.

Look for new news and updates to resume next week.
