Owens Harkey Advertising Makes Inc. Magazine's List of 500 Fastest Growing Private Companies

PHOENIX, Aug. 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Inc. Magazine has named Owens Harkey Advertising to its list of 500 fastest growing private companies in the nation.  The local, full-service agency has experienced a 931 percent growth since 2009. With the addition of over 15 local and out of state clients and agency-record new hires, Owens Harkey was the only advertising firm in Phoenix to make this year's honorary list.

"To be recognized on Inc. Magazine's list is an incredible honor, and we attribute our success to the expansion of our diverse team, as we all have experience in different industry arenas," Partner Matt Owens said. "I have heard at several ad agency conferences that it is impossible for an agency to go to scale in today's business environment. This award is proof that they are wrong. Our agency continues to grow rapidly and our team knows that our growth isn't a fluke."

Recent clients attained give the OH Team's reputation and brand management experience a large boost in areas like sports, finance and automotive while taking over the tourism and luxury retail industries. Furthermore, the team has secured expansion into new markets with existing clients such as ARS and Raising Cane's.

Other new client relationships attained by Owens Harkey include ASU Sun Devil Club, AZ Distilling Co., Coffin & Trout, GAAM Wealth Advisors, Las Palomas Hotel and Resort, Rocky Point CVB, Weight Loss Institute of Arizona and Wild Horse Pass Motorsports Park.

"Owens Harkey's client and employee growth supports the fact that we deliver more than what we promise," Partner Scott Harkey said. "Our team's ability to collaborate award-winning material and surpass our internal goals is one thing, but when we see it making an impact on our client's goals- that's when we know we're on the right track."

In addition to increasing its client roster, Owens Harkey has created an Automotive Division focusing on new client relationships with Chapman Automotive Group and San Leandro Ford and Lincoln in the Bay Area.

With over 50 years of experience, Owens Harkey Advertising has catered to B2B and B2C companies across the Valley with services ranging from public relations, digital and advertising to creative design, media buying and brand management.
