Intouch Solutions Named Agency of the Year
OVERLAND PARK, Kan. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Intouch
Solutions was recently named Agency of the Year by
national health care industry publication Med Ad News. The
"Manny" award was announced at a gala event in New York City last week.
Intouch was named Agency
of the Year, Category III, honoring agencies recording revenue of
$25 million or less. With offices in Kansas City and Chicago, Intouch
Solutions is a 180-person digital marketing agency serving the
pharmaceutical industry.
According to Med Ad News editors, Intouch Solutions was chosen as
Agency of the Year because "the agency experienced a breakout year in
2009, achieving 14 new account wins, adding 62 new employees, and
winning 12 awards. In 2009, Intouch became part of a growing trend of
digital agencies taking the lead on strategic and creative services."
Faruk Capan, Intouch Solutions CEO, said, "We're thrilled that Med Ad
News has recognized Intouch. I am so proud of our incredibly
talented and devoted associates who worked to make this a reality. And I
want to thank our visionary clients who have given us so many great
opportunities to excel."
Med Ad News Group Publisher Patty Spinner said, "Between the
global economic crisis and uncertainty over U.S. health care reform, no
one can deny that this was one of the toughest years in recent memory
for the health care advertising industry and the pharmaceutical
marketers they serve," she said. "But there were still new drugs to be
launched, and patients and physicians in need of information. I continue
to be impressed with the passion of the health care advertising agencies
in meeting these information needs, and with the creativity of their
output."
Best Interactive Patient Campaign
Intouch also received the Manny Award for "Best Interactive Patient
Campaign," for its digital campaign designed to deliver insulin
education to a broader type 2 diabetes audience. Created for client
sanofi-aventis, the campaign included Web,
social
media, and iPhone elements, including a YouTube
channel and iPhone
application.
