PRO-MARK AD CAMPAIGN WINS MORE AWARDS

Pro-Mark's "Hand" Campaign continues to win awards outside the music industry. The campaign was featured recently on Creativity's AdCritic.com as Print Pick of the Day and Print Pick of the Week. The "signs" chosen were "Peace", "Rock On" and "Hang Loose".

It was also recognized by Best Ads, who featured the Pro-Mark campaign on their international site Bestads.com, and the Graphis Advertising Annual 2007. For more than fifty years, Graphis has earned the respect of the global art community with work selected from professionals who are the best in the business. Today it continues to be a distinction for accomplished photographers, designers, art directors, illustrators, and product designers to be included among the pages of a Graphis publication.

When contacted for comment, the company's ad agency said, "Most drumstick manufacturers, including our client Pro-Mark, have used endorsers in their advertising. Over the past several years, we felt that Pro-Mark needed to break out of this sea of sameness. This campaign was meant to let drummers know that Pro-Mark is supporting the musician at whatever level they may be, that we understand the essence of playing and the need to constantly improve, and to express themselves the best way they know how - through music."

Pro-Mark's Director of Sales and Marketing, Pat Brown said, "We are indeed fortunate to have the most talented creative team in our industry and they deserve recognition for this outstanding work. The team consists of Creative Director Karen Gregory, Creative Director/Copywriter Ray Longoria, Associate Creative Director/Art Director Matt Davis, and Photographer Andrew Yates."
