, President of Fish Marketing, said,“We’re thrilled to welcome a talented new group of professionals to our team, and are excited to be expanding our market penetration in the outdoor sports category.” He added, “We have seen exponential growth over the last few years and this exciting merger is an indication of more to come!”
Alex Brauer, president of BDC Advertising, cited client growth as the primary motivation behind the merger. “As our clients grew and diversified, their needs did as well, particularly in the areas of digital media platforms. BDC needed added capabilities;
the challenge was finding the right partner. FishMarketing proved to be the ideal match, for reasons beyond the coincidence of the agency’s name.” Brauer becomes an account director and lead creative on BDC accounts.
Fish adds that the support of BDC clients has been overwhelmingly positive, as the majority–including Yakima Bait, Maxima Fishing Line, Renaissance Marine Group, Gamakatsu and Steven’sMarine–
have transitioned to FishMarketing.They join current outdoor lifestyle clients HEVI-Shot, Snowbasin Resort, Mt. Hood Skibowl, Timberline Lodge, and Subaru Mountain Partnerships.
