A New Horizon for Fast Growing Media Shop


Horizon Media Launches New Website and Logo -

NEW YORK, Nov. 5 / -- Horizon Media, the largest independent media services agency in America and the fastest growing in the industry, has updated its website and logo to reflect the entrepreneurial and trusting service the independent shop provides to its clients and media partners. It is the first branding and image revamp in ten years. To see the new site, visit www.horizonmedia.com.

"Our new blue logo speaks to our name and all the possibilities associated with looking out on the horizon," stated CEO Bill Koenigsberg. "The most important message I wanted to communicate in updating the site is the Horizon position of 'business is personal' which recognizes the trust that agency and client must develop with one another. Once that trust is built, it is the bridge to taking greater risks with innovative strategies and clients feel comfortable with us leading them. It's that personal connection with clients that is the true motivating driver and that is why Horizon Media is known for having clients for life. It drives people to go the extra mile."

The homepage clearly depicts that message with an image of Horizon's CEO who greets visitors and personally invites them to "please step inside our office and find out why ... " The 2006 Media All-Star CEO of the Year (as selected by Media Week) goes on to inform how Horizon goes the extra mile to make it personal and explains "first, because our commitment to client success is passionate and ingrained in corporate culture. Second, because we are passionately committed to the growth and development of our talented employees."

From the homepage, visitors can browse a menu of options to learn more about the independent media shop. A click on Mission provides the company's mission statement to help clients sell products and build brands by providing effective marketing counsel and profound insight regarding brand consumers and their targeted communication channels.
