(Truckee, California) April 10th, 2009 will mark the 18 year anniversary for the Truckee owned and operated advertising agency Creative Concepts. Creative Concepts is a full-service advertising agency specializing in media and marketing, and currently has over 30 national and regional clients in Northern Nevada, California, and throughout the western region. “Every year we are thankful that we are able to continue to do what we love, and also to help local and regional businesses keep their livelihood going,” says Laura Partridge founder and owner of the agency. “This year we are especially thankful for the lasting relationships we have with our clients and the friends we have made along the way,” adds Partridge.
Longevity in the marketplace combined with knowledge of all forms of media, enthusiasm for projects, and impeccable attention to detail makes Creative Concepts a leader in the advertising industry. Creative Concepts offers the expertise and knowledge of a big agency yet maintains the personal touch that only a small agency can provide. Partridge has over 26 years in the advertising industry and recent addition to the staff, Debra Winans, has over 22 years. Winans joined the staff in January of this year as the Director of Account Services. Working with a small, close knit staff allows them to tailor marketing and advertising plans to the meet specific needs of each of their clients, and to be responsive to the continually fluctuating economic climate.
This strategy has proven successful as evidenced by the client roster which includes several long term clients and a diverse list of industries. Creative Concepts client list includes: public agencies such as the Regional Transportation Commission; Tahoe Forest Hospital System; Reno-Sparks Convention and Visitors’ Authority and private-sector clients such as Atlantis Casino Resort Spa; Northstar-at-Tahoe; Sierra-at-Tahoe; and Dodge Ridge Winter Sports Area.
Creative Concepts also works with real estate developers such as Intrawest’s Playground and Tahoe Mountain Resorts, internationally based company GemsTV, as well as small, locally owned Reno and Truckee businesses.
Being able to adapt to the variety of the clients' marketing, advertising and media needs has kept business flowing and the day-to-day job interesting and fun for Partridge and her staff. The Creative Concepts staff is experienced in a variety of industries and their backgrounds are diverse, covering a large spectrum of the marketing field. Along with Laura Partridge and Debra Winans, the agency’s team includes Kirsten Appleton, Molly Moloney, and Lillian Waiyaki-Rolphe. Services offered include media planning, negotiation and placement, strategy, ad design and production, search engine marketing, public relations, and promotions.
While the list of clients has grown and changed over the years, Creative Concepts still has many of the same clients that started with the business 18 years ago. “We feel very fortunate to have such great clients, and to be able to live and work in the region,” says Partridge. “We look forward to continuing to make a difference in our clients’ businesses and in our community,” she adds.
