New names in the agency directory

Long time readers of Idaho Ad Agencies may recall the agency directory, which is a relatively complete list of agencies throughout the state of Idaho.

Recently, that list has seen the addition of a couple new names.

Headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, they also have offices in Cleveland, Dayton, Cincinnati and Toledo, Ohio, Parkersburg and Charleston, West Virginia, Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, and Denver, Colorado. Fahlgren Mortine provides a full-service offering to clients in 29 states from California to Connecticut, with industry specializations in automotive, business-to-business, consumer packaged goods, education, financial services, healthcare, retail, technology, and tourism and economic development.

Their Boise office services clients such as Scentsy, JR Simplot Company, Independent Doctors of Idaho, the Idaho State Dental Associations as well as pro bono work for the Idaho Foodbank.

Propeople is the other new addition to the list, and also opened an office in Boise last summer — their tenth office worldwide.
