2014 WNY ADDY AWARDS We’ve got our golden rules. Our obsessions. Our absolutes about what makes a good ad. We sure talk about it a lot. With fellow creatives. Account executives. Clients. You know, other people who are just as close to it as we are. Sometimes we do focus groups to answer a very specific question. But rarely do we ask regular time-clock-punching, cereal-swilling, channel-flipping, trousers-buying folks what they actually think about all this. So we thought let’s bust down that wall and get the perspectives of the people we actually do all this work for. Landscapers, grandmas, kids, teachers. People who define “briefs” and “PMS” entirely differently. Some of their thoughts confirm what we hold true. Some fly right in the face of it. And sometimes, it’s obvious that they have no earthly idea what they want, like or respond to. Which tells us that there’s no pattern or formula to guide our endeavors. The only known antidote? Creativity.

A Message from the President & Co-Chairs What did we learn from our theme this year? People love things that are cute, funny and provide value. They also don’t read. With that in mind, we’ve dropped the wordy intro, and replaced it with pictures of babies. Congratulations to tonight’s winners, and a huge thanks to everyone who helped put on the show.

Alex Osborn Award for Creativity

This award recognizes individuals who, through outstanding creative achievements, have left an indelible mark on the Western New York creative community. The key requirement is that the individual’s achievements have helped strengthen the local advertising, graphic arts and communication disciplines – as well as gained recognition outside our market..

*Mr. Reiling is unable to shake the feeling he’s forgotten someone, and regrets it if he has.

“Pete is a Renaissance man. He’s a writer, art d i r e c

Erin Doherety Fortunate. Every day I wake up and think to myself, I’m pretty fortunate. Every day I have the opportunity to work beside people who have made my few years in this industry exciting, challenging and rewarding. I get to work on a variety of projects that continually keep me on my toes, whether it’s a capital campaign for a beloved local nonprofit, a national vehicle diagnostics company or my very own agency’s social media footprint. And speaking of said agency, I couldn’t have found a better place that fosters growth, education and independence. Every day I’m able to learn new things in the fields of digital marketing, e-communications, measurement and reporting. From my humble beginnings when SKM Group decided to take a chance on a shy but dedicated Duquesne University grad for an account coordinator position to my current title as senior interactive project manager, it’s been a crazy ride. I’ve had my share of ups and downs (mostly ups, don’t be scared, kids) all of which have helped to shape the marketing professional I’ve become — and paved the way for what I can contribute down the road. Future star? Maybe. But I think “fortunate star” has a nice ring to it, too. I am flattered and humbled to be the recipient of this award. I know I have a lot to learn, but think that’s what makes this industry so exciting. New technologies, new challenges and most importantly, new people to learn from on a daily basis are what enrich every idea and make me happy to come to work every day. I want to thank my husband, family, bosses (you know who you are), Ad Club and the entire SKM crew (both past and present). You all have been a vital part of my growth and success, and for that I am truly thankful. And fortunate. Very, very fortunate.

Future Star Honoring an outstanding young professional in the marketing and advertising field who has demonstrated great potential in his or her early years in the industry. The recipient must have five years or less experience in the marketing and advertising field (excluding internships or part-time employment while working on a degree) and have been an Advertising Club of Buffalo member for at least one year.

JOE CROWLEY If you know one thing about Joe Crowley, you know he was a Red Sox fan. If you know two things, you also know he was a man committed to serving others. Having come from humble beginnings, Joe was always intent on giving back and sharing his success. He served on numerous boards, and countless organizations from the Salvation Army to the Irish Classical Theatre to Buffalo Prep to Bishop Timon High School have felt Joe’s generosity and love. Joe’s legacy is not only the ad agency he cofounded with John Webb, but the values and principles he promoted throughout the community. The Advertising Club of Buffalo is proud to announce that from this day forward, our award honoring achievement in furthering the activities and interests of the club through hard work and going above and beyond the call of duty shall be known as the Joe Crowley Award for Service.

She’s been a member for eight years and on the board for the last four, serving on the executive board as Secretary since 2012. She was a part of the team that created the foundations for the club’s regular educational series, AdLab. She brought it to life and has been overseeing its programming since 2011.

Kim is a strong advocate for the club in her constant engagement with local design students, colleagues and anyone she thinks may benefit from the diverse programs the club offers. Joe Crowley Award for Service This recognizes not only hard work, but also outstanding achievement in furthering the activities and interests of the club. All past recipients have shown dedication, commitment and service to the club that went above and beyond the call of duty.

Bruce Gifford Creative Director/Copywriter, Goodby Silverstein & Partners, Arnold Worldwide, Digitas, Blast Radius, Wunderman World Health, Freelance New York, NY After a number of years working as a copywriter and creative director at agencies such as Goodby Silverstein, EuroRSCG and Arnold, Bruce has won awards at about every major show in the industry, including Cannes, One Show and CA. Then, with no clients, no seed money and a three-month-old baby, he and a partner decided to start their own agency. Working out of a rented garage, he grew it into a regional creative hot shop that was later voted “One of the Best Places to Work” by the Washington Business Journal. Ten years after he sold the agency, he is now back in New York, working as a creative director at Wunderman World Health and Blast Radius.

London Marathon London was the site of the first modern marathon during the 1908 Olympics. While the organizers initially set that race at 25 miles, it was extended for logistical reasons (some say at the demand of Queen Victoria) to 26 miles. That distance was adopted as the standard for all future marathons in 1921.

We’re specialists. Patient recruitment is all we do. And we’ve been helping the world’s leading pharmaceutical companies for more than 10 years. How? By viewing each study as a new challenge. Understanding people from around the world and making emotional connections with them. Giving research sites the attention they deserve. Keeping an eye on the bottom line at all times. It’s not magic, it’s the Praxis difference.

We look forward to seeing you in San Diego. We’ve got something special planned for this year and you won’t want to miss it.

“When I woke up just after dawn on September 28, 1928, I certainly didn’t plan to revolutionize all medicine by discovering the world’s first antibiotic, or bacteria killer [penicillin],” Fleming would later say. “But I suppose that was exactly what I did.”6

Every day, it’s our hope to play a part in improving health for people around the world. To achieve this, we focus on delivering results that help bring our clients’ visions closer to reality. We’d like to talk to you about how we can help craft the most effective and efficient clinical trial recruitment program possible. Because that’s what we do.

Approximately one in 50 drugs that enter preclinical testing prove safe enough and effective enough to be tested in people. Of these, one in five will receive FDA approval.7

Yearly mammograms are recommended starting at age 40 and continuing for as long as a woman is in good health. Clinical breast exams (CBE) about every 3 years are recommended for women in their 20s and 30s and every year for women 40 and over.1

ay urd at

Keen insights, solid strategy, and award-winning ideas are meaningless unless they lead to real-world results. The space we work in is a challenging one, where mismanaged recruitment and missed deadlines can cost millions of dollars and years of delay in bringing life-saving drugs to market. We’re proud to say that in the last decade, we’ve earned a reputation as a company that delivers results – and usually beats deadlines doing it.

We know the industry. We know your business. We share your goals and succeed only when you do. If you’re interested in finding out what truly focused patient recruitment can do for your next clinical trial, let’s talk. Call us at 1.855.gopraxis or visit our website at gopraxis.com.

Prostate Cancer Awareness Month Starting at age 50, men should talk to a doctor about the pros and cons of testing so they can decide if testing is the right choice for them. If they are African American or have a father or brother who had prostate cancer before age 65, men should have this talk with a doctor starting at age 45.1

Patient recruitment isn’t one of our services – it is the focus of everything we do.

We’re committed to delivering value and results – results you can view 24/7 with PraxisDirect®. Our experience and success informs everything we do. It’s not magic, it’s the Praxis difference.

At t R A C t i o N Members of the teleost order Lophiiformes, Anglerfish are bony fishes named for their mode of predation, wherein a fleshy growth extending from the head acts as a bioluminescent lure. Like fish, mammals are known to be attracted to gently glowing objects, a force that can manifest itself as prolonged and irrational “queuing” behavior outside of high-tech retail outlets.

London Marathon London was the site of the first modern marathon during the 1908 Olympics. While the organizers initially set that race at 25 miles, it was extended for logistical reasons (some say at the demand of Queen Victoria) to 26 miles. That distance was adopted as the standard for all future marathons in 1921.

Focused patient recruitment.

On December 15, 1820, the U.S. Pharmacopeia was founded, creating a system of standards, a system of quality control, and a national formulary. Today, the USP continues its efforts and seeks to work with industry, academia, regulators, international organizations, and other stakeholders around the world to develop harmonized global standards.

Recent developments in the study and treatment of tumor growth indicate the possibility of using lab-born, human tissue structures with replicated human biochemistry to better understand and learn how to treat biopsied human tumor cells. Some have suggested that this is an important step in the future development of personalized medicine.

Our ability to find, understand, and engage participants has enabled us, in most cases, to overdeliver and beat our deadlines. It’s not magic, it’s the Praxis difference.

Keen insights, solid strategy, and award-winning ideas are meaningless unless they lead to real-world results. The space we work in is a challenging one, where mismanaged recruitment and missed deadlines can cost millions of dollars and years of delay in bringing life-saving drugs to market.

While the organizers initially set that race at 25 miles, it was extended for logistical reasons (some say at the demand of Queen Victoria) to 26 miles. That distance was adopted as the standard for all future marathons in 1921.

Working in the pharmaceutical business, we all face a lot of different pressures and priorities. Day to day, as we focus on some specific aspect of a greater challenge, it’s easy to lose sight of what our work is really for. At Praxis, we often stop and remind ourselves that our work – and our industry – is about making everyone’s health better. And we feel good about that.

2014 WNY ADDY AWARDS We’ve got our golden rules. Our obsessions. Our absolutes about what makes a good ad. We sure talk about it a lot. With fellow creatives. Account executives. Clients. You know, other people who are just as close to it as we are. Sometimes we do focus groups to answer a very specific question. But rarely do we ask regular time-clock-punching, cereal-swilling, channel-flipping, trousers-buying folks what they actually think about all this. So we thought let’s bust down that wall and get the perspectives of the people we actually do all this work for. Landscapers, grandmas, kids, teachers. People who define “briefs” and “PMS” entirely differently. Some of their thoughts confirm what we hold true. Some fly right in the face of it. And sometimes, it’s obvious that they have no earthly idea what they want, like or respond to. Which tells us that there’s no pattern or formula to guide our endeavors. The only known antidote? Creativity.
