A Client Called Home.
Rhode Island Tourism

Berman, two Fazzano brothers, Paolino, Valois, Schumpert, Swen, McMahon, Kaplan, DiPrete, Sundlun, Almond and Carcieri. No, it’s not the offensive lineup for this Sunday’s game. It’s the roster of economic development directors and governors we’ve worked for as Rhode Island Tourism’s marketing agency. Nine executive directors, four governors, one truly dedicated Tourism director. And scores of TV spots, PR placements, breakthrough print ads, direct mail and crackerjack online marketing campaigns. All working together to drive millions of Web visits, inquiries and sales that’ve put heads on beds in Rhode Island’s hotels these past 22 years.

What great fortune, to have had the privilege to work with so many smart, inspiring people, and to represent our magnificent home. In this month’s Pride feature we invite you to take a look back at some of the work we’ve done together. It’s really a celebration of sorts; we’ve just signed a new contract with Rhode Island Tourism after a competitive review, and are embarking on developing the next phase of the program together. Stay tuned: we’ll be sharing that work with you soon.
