DavidHenry recently created and launched Richmond University Medical Center’s WIC (women, infants and children) program awareness campaign. Advertising includes bus shelters, ferries’ dioramas, print media, direct mail and event communications in select areas.
As the agency of record for Space Farms Zoo and Museum located in Sussex County, New Jersey, The DavidHenry Agency is implementing their 2012 integrated marketing plan for this season, running March 31, 2012 through October 31, 2012.
Program components include the strategy, development, and roll out of the 2012 Space Farms media plan, a rebranding campaign consisting of updated creative for Space Farms’ outdoor, print, TV and radio promotion; design, development, and management of the newly redesigned SpaceFarms.com, and creation and management of the Space Farms Zoo and Museum YouTube channel.
Understanding the importance of including both traditional and modern tools in their marketing mix, Space Farms is excited about the launch of their summer 2012 campaign. The media incorporates the theme of American Idol, the popular reality TV singing competition, with a spin-off “Animal Idol” as Space Farms’ animals — including Scotty the Scottish Cow, Leslie the Llama and Eugene the Yak — show off their vocal skills under the direction of Bobby Barakat, the Animal Idol Master of Ceremonies. The newly launched www.SpaceFarms.com and the Space Farms Zoo and Museum YouTube channel promote the 2012 media and extend the updated brand platform for Space Farms.
Says Parker Space, third generation owner and operator of Space Farms, “As a tourist destination for families in a radius of about 80 miles from our zoo and museum, we know that it’s crucial for our guests to learn more about us online as they plan their trip. Our new website portrays the fun times families have when they visit, and also give them the opportunity to plan their trip with access to directions, admission pricing, zoo and museum information, and the ability to pre-order group tickets. SpaceFarms.com is directly tied to our Facebook page through Facebook’s social plug in, so all of our posts, contests and information on Facebook is directly fed to our new site – we love it!”

Westfield, NJ – May 15, 2009 –In the October issue of Commerce, the magazine took 10 of New Jersey’s top advertising agency executives and sat down with them to discuss the anatomy of a successful ad campaign. When David Fink, President and Chief Communications Officer at The David Henry Agency was posed the question, “How can a company establish a brand in niche markets? What are the elements of a successful branding campaign?” he responded:
“As a brand, you need to act like a politician and get your vote out, tell people who you are, what you stand for and what you can do for them. Establish credibility and tell them why you are unique—especially when there are well-known companies providing your product or service in your prospective markets. Establish a platform for your marketing efforts that specifically addresses the needs and wishes of the niche community and how you will fulfill those needs. Retain some key industry people to be your “cheerleaders” (those who already cast a large shadow: consultants, leading manufacturers, media, others). Announce your ‘ticket’ by executing a comprehensive marketing/PR/media plan that not only makes a splash but also sets the stage for a long-term sustained campaign. Having the right offer with the right story and the right people supporting you is a terrific foundation for capturing the lion’s share of a vertical market.”
