THUNDER FACTORY EXPANDS EASTWARD WITH OPENING OF NEW YORK CITY OFFICE
Fast Growing Integrated Marketing Firm Also Has Full-Service Offices in San Francisco Bay Area and Los Angeles
San Francisco Bay Area (April 19, 2005) - THUNDER FACTORY, the San Francisco Bay Area-based integrated marketing firm that was recently ranked as one of the fastest growing private companies in Northern California, today announced that it has opened a full service office in New York City. The new office (located at 584 Broadway, in New York City's Soho neighborhood) will help accelerate THUNDER FACTORY's national expansion plans and play a key role in the firm's strategy to expand significantly its East Coast client base.
"THUNDER FACTORY always has been a national firm, and our work for global clients such as AT&T; Wireless, Visa and McKesson Corporation, clearly demonstrates this," said Patrick U. Di Chiro, Chairman and CEO. "Our new Soho/NYC location gives the firm a truly coast-to-coast footprint, with which we can better serve clients and grow our business."
Di Chiro is serving as the interim Managing Director of THUNDER FACTORY New York City, to get the new office up and running. No stranger to New York City, Di Chiro was based in Manhattan for 14 years before moving to California in 1996. While in New York, he was a Partner at Ketchum Worldwide and, prior to that served as Director of International Marketing and Communications for American Express Company. Di Chiro also was VP of Marketing and Client Services for Armando Testa Advertising, Italy's largest agency.
"New York City is the historic capital of the marketing and media industries, as well as a global business center, so it's a perfect venue to showcase THUNDER FACTORY's unique brand of integrated marketing," said Di Chiro. "Unlike a lot of agencies, which tend to be overly concerned with awareness and buzz, THUNDER FACTORY's primary objective is building our clients' business. To that end, we create big ideas and then drive those strategies across the full spectrum of sales and marketing channels, tactics and media. That is what marketing integration is really all about - not just being a one-stop shop for marketing services."
Di Chiro said that THUNDER FACTORY is aggressively pitching prospective clients in four major business sectors in the Northeast Region: Financial services, healthcare, branded consumer products and technology. According to Di Chiro, the NYC operation is already in advanced talks about representing a global technology client, a major financial services firm, and a leading pharmaceutical company.
