The year was 1950. Harry Truman occupied the White House, American troops were fighting overseas, a gallon of gasoline cost 18 cents and in Nutley, New Jersey, a small advertising agency opened its doors for the very first time. Now, 60 years after the original “Mad Men” ruled the advertising world, Turchette Advertising Agency proudly celebrates a historic 60 year milestone that no other agency in the state can match.
Headquartered in Fairfield, New Jersey, Turchette continues to serve a wide range of local and national clients in markets such as industrial technologies, pharmaceutical and cosmetic packaging, financial services, business-to-business professional services, and more. With a dozen full-time employees, the agency provides everything from corporate branding, web design, and print campaigns, to direct marketing, public relations and event management. And, in an industry renowned for volatility and client portability, the agency’s average client tenure is now over 15 years.
“We’ve watched countless ad agencies come and go over the last six decades,” said Michael J. Gavin, President. “The reason we are still here and thriving is because we never lose sight of what matters most … our relationship with the clients. We pride ourselves on knowing their markets, their unique needs and what it will take to make them grow.”
