BOB EVANS RESTAURANTS NAMES RON FOTH AGENCY OF RECORD
We’re fired up about “Down on the Farm!” Bob Evans, a major restaurant brand with nearly 500 locations in 18 states, has named us full-service agency of record for their multimillion dollar account. We’ll be handling strategic and creative development for digital, TV, radio, outdoor, in-restaurant signage, and menu design; as well as media planning + buying in over 60 DMAs. We even shot our initial campaign down on the original Bob Evans Farm in Rio Grande, Ohio.
