Street level views of marketing & advertising in Idaho
Carew Co, fresh off their third anniversary, has added Thomas Walsh to their staff as a designer. He’s a graduate of Boise State University with a BFA in Graphic Design, and has been an AIGA member since 2007.
Congratulations Thomas, and congratulations to Carew Co. on the latest milestone.
A familiar face has returned to Stoltz Marketing Group.
Jill Coles has returned to Stoltz Marketing Group as Production and Media Manager. She was previously with the agency from 2005 – 2009.
Prior to returning, she was most recently with Balihoo, and has also held marketing and planning-related positions with POWER Engineers, Eddie Bauer and Fred Meyer. Jill is a summa cum laude graduate of the University of Idaho.
Congratulations Jill.
One of the unique things about being in a smaller market such as ours is the ability to follow certain people’s career growth over the years. Sure, there are always those who come and go, move to different cities, or get out of the marketing and advertising business altogether.
But, there are also those who stay in the area, and in the business long enough to get noticed.
Nate Hanson is one of the latter.
Nate first appeared on the scene as an intern at Carew Co, and quickly became their first “official” hire. Over the course of the next two years, Nate continued to grow his creative skills, and was a valuable member of the Carew Co team.
Recently, Nate took the next step in his career, moving from Carew Co over to Brandsmack. It’s another step in a career started first as a student at Northwest Nazarene University, then an intern, and has since grown into a career for a talented designer.
Congratulations Nate on the move.
And a tip of the hat to the folks over at Carew Co for bragging on their staff, even when they decide to move on in their careers.
Oliver Russell in Boise has added two new faces to their staff:
Greg Herzog joins the agency as Account Supervisor, and Raechelle Clark as Account Coordinator.
From Oliver Russell’s website:
Greg joins the team from Creative Media Development, a leading integrated marketing company based in Portland, where he served as producer of direct response interactive projects and product launches for Cisco, Microsoft, and Autodesk, among others. His work experience spans nearly a decade as a strategist and manager in direct response.
Raechelle joins Oliver Russell from the Boise branch of the Muscular Dystrophy Association of Boise, where she was in charge of fundraising activities and cause-related marketing programs throughout Southern Idaho. Prior to that, she was a manager at the Arts and Culture Alliance of Coeur d’Alene and communications director at the Coeur d’Alene Chamber of Commerce.
Greg will plan, monitor, and track campaign results to ensure optimal performance on behalf of our B-to-B and direct response clients, as well as supervise the account team. Raechelle will manage internal processes and assist in client communications to ensure projects run smoothly, with accuracy, and on schedule.
Congratulations to both.
Rizen Creative has added to their staff, with a “kick-ass office assistant” named Bethany. More details are available on Rizen Creative’ blog.
