Greetings!
Michael Seay
2010-2011
 |
Hello, my name is Michael and I'll be your AdClub President for the next 12 months.
It might sound like something you would hear from a tour guide, but that is how I plan to approach this next year. Allow me to be your guide on this incredible ride we'll call AdClub 2010-11. On our journey I will introduce you to the incredible and fun opportunities available to you as AdClub members. We'll encounter the ups & downs of this fluid economy, but the common goal of a marketing & advertising-rich community with numerous success stories will hopefully prevail.
You may notice by the adaptation of our logo that the Advertising Club of Toledo is 100 years old! We were able to take a glimpse back at history last month at our dinner program, Reminisce: An Evening of ACT Presidents. Heartfelt thanks to all of those past Presidents that participated as part of the panel and have held this office before me. I also would like to acknowledge and thank our newest addition to the past Presidents club, Sara Shiels. The now Ex-Officio has been a fantastic leader of the club and will continue to help us grow by serving as Chair of the 2nd annual AdWORKS. If you have not secured October 15th on your calendar yet, you'll want to do that ASAP.

The evening started with current Advertising Club of Toledo President Sara Shiels, from Toledo.com, welcoming everyone and thanking her board of directors.

Scholarships totaling $2,300 were then awarded to 3 college students, from the AdClub Scholarship fund administered by The Toledo Community Foundation. Sara then did the official "passing of the gavel" to incoming President for 2010-11, Michael Seay of Buckeye TeleSystem.

You'll Do Better In AdClub
written by: Kathy Jex
Here's your opportunity to belong to an elite group of professionals with a 100 year long history* of forward thinking in business and advertising, the Advertising Club of Toledo. If you have already renewed your membership, congratulations. You're now a part of an organization that has produced some of the greats in advertising history, including Theodore McManus, marketing manager for Kobacker's store in Toledo and later the "agency of record" for Cadillac, Dodge and other early car companies in Detroit. It was McManus who first wrote the slogan, "You'll do better at Kobackers" which he later re-wrote to be the famous slogan "You'll do better in Toledo." McManus also reached national prominence for creating the legendary ad for Cadillac, "The Penalty of Leadership" in 1915.
