Ad 2 Dallas is an affiliate of AAF Dallas, and is exclusively geared toward professionals 32 years of age and under. The organization named its inaugural class of “32 Under 32,” recognizing the best young professional in the Dallas marketplace. That listed included our own ACD/writer Cody Tidmore. In just three years with the agency, Cody has established himself as an integral part of the team, which was proven when he was promoted to Associate Creative Director this past December. We couldn’t be happier that his talents are being recognized in the industry.

After a national review, Johnson & Sekin has been named AOR for Rice’s Honey. The Greeley, Colorado company was founded in 1924 by L.R. Rice who sold his family’s local raw & unfiltered honey door-to-door and at farmer’s markets. Today, the company sells nearly 20 different local raw & unfiltered honeys at national retailers including Kroger, Costco, Amazon and Walmart . New packaging, website, digital advertising and trade promotions will break early in 2018.

In the spirit of the season, the agency donated bicycles on behalf of our clients on the final night of WFAA’s 49th Annual Santa’s Helpers toy drive.  Bikes are generally the most requested Christmas gift, but those wishes oftentimes go unfulfilled due to the higher cost and low donations.

Johnson & Sekin has been named one of Advertising Age’s “Best Places to Work.” Ad Age’s list is comprised of just 50 companies nationally, with Johnson & Sekin claiming the #30 spot on the prestigious list in its first year applying for the award. Johnson & Sekin is just one of three agencies in Texas, and the only agency in Dallas, to receive the distinction. The “Best Places to Work” survey and awards program is designed to identify, recognize and honor the best employers in the Advertising and Marketing industries, benefiting the industry’s economy, workforce and businesses.

After a formal, statewide review conducted over several months featuring many of Texas’ top agencies, Johnson & Sekin has been named the new advertising AOR for Baylor University.

Initial work will begin January 2018, working toward a new overall University campaign for the 2018/2019 academic year.

After a formal, citywide review Johnson & Sekin has been named AOR for the Dallas Zoo. Initial work will be released in November for a new holiday tradition: Dallas Zoo Lights presented by Reliant.

It’s the newest contender in the battle against Multiple Sclerosis: Fight Sauce. In the spirit of collaboration, we introduced our clients Meat Fight and the Jardine’s brand of Teasdale Latin Foods, and history – and a sauce – were made. Any time we have the chance to name and design something this delicious, you can count us in.

The sauce is available at MeatFight.com and North Texas’ coolest BBQ joints, with proceeds benefitting the National MS Society.
