New York Health & Racquet Club (NYHRC) put fitness on the map in NYC when it first opened its doors in 1973. Now, of course, New Yorkers have more exercise options than NYC has pizza joints. Yet they keep coming back to NYHRC, the original NYC health club, where they feel part of a tight-knit community of health-conscious people in pursuit of fitness and vitality.
At any of NYHRC’s nine Manhattan locations, virtually any fitness need or interest can be met, whether on your own and taking advantage of the well-equipped gym floor, or with the guidance of seasoned group fitness instructors and certified personal trainers.
NYHRC is truly in a class by itself, with amenities you won’t find at many other health clubs, including saltwater pools, squash and racquetball courts, basketball courts, a beach club and a yacht, perfect for beautiful sunset cruises around Manhattan.* (more…)

Just wrote the welcome message for our DiMassimo Goldstein employee Intranet. Thought I’d share:
Welcome to the Growth Agency Network.
If you only remember three words, remember these: EVERY TOUCHPOINT MATTERS
In the center of you there is a double helix of DNA that sets in motion who you become. Clip a fingernail and this same code is there.
In the center of every experience is the truth of the brand. If the reception desk is boring, the brand is boring. If the invoice has no charm, the brand has no charm.
An inspiring receipt. A stylish notepad. A creative collection letter. A box with spots. A one-page owners manual.
Empires have been built on such small things as these.
If it is, it is a part of the brand.
Brand. Driven. Growth. That’s four, five and six. That’s how we do it.
Banner, hang-tag, balloon. Truck to television commercial. If we can do it, we can make it deliver the brand.
Here we tend to these individuals we call brands. We grow and evolve them. And we can tell you what is in the fingernail, before you clip it. (more…)

Oh, where are the brand mascots of yesteryear? The Quisps, the Hamburglars, the Colonels who tweaked our fancy and tickled our tastebuds?
It seems like almost every day, the brand images many Americans grew up with are being shelved.

I was starting to feel I was un-shockable. Working in advertising with lots of young-creative-wired people, I see just about everything, or at least I thought I did.
And then today I discovered Ana. Also known as the Pro Ana movement. Or Proana.
Ana is a global community committed to supporting and encouraging anorexics in their achievement of ever more harrowing weight loss goals.
I’m shocked. And I’m shocked that I’m shocked.
What’s next, Pro-Dep, for people who want to be more depressed? Is there a Pro-OCD community? If so, I don’t want to read the comments!

Growth Key: We can own substance in a world of flash, but in the end, the proof is in the platform.
The category of online trading has no shortage of flash and swagger. Everyone is making similar claims, causing noise and clutter. Our competitors were outspending us 10 – 1. We needed to change the game and the way we use TV by getting people to take our tour and see the TradeStation difference for themselves.
Our multimedia campaign won Consumer Retail Best in Show at the 2013 Annual Financial Communications Society Portfolio Awards.
The 19th annual Financial Communications Society Portfolio Awards recognized last year’s most creative and innovative financial PR, advertising, collateral, and digital media efforts. More than 450 guests attended the event last Thursday at Terminal 5 in Manhattan.

Instagram has launched a new video option similar to Vines. This will create competition for Twitter’s Vine app. Instagram is ahead of the game, they smartly avoided many of Vine’s initial missteps like leaving out hashtag and front-facing camera support. They also included filters for the videos and longer video durations.
