RadioMobil to Use More Advertising Agencies

• Four advertising companies will work for Paegas

Beside EuroRSCG, which was the exclusive agency of Paegas so far, there will be another three names on the list of RadioMobilâ??s advertising companies â?" the agencies Tanagra, Conquest and DDB. RadioMobil has been the leading operator on the market in the number of new activations for two years now, and since its foundation has been the innovative leader of the market, offering the widest portfolio of services and always bringing them to the market first. At the same time it is one of the biggest advertisers on the Czech market and its advertising campaigns appear in the Czech media during the whole year. That is why it decided to broaden the team of its advertising partners.

â?śWe were looking for partners that would manage to work for a such a demanding client like an international telecommunications company,â?ť says the Marketing Communication Manager of RadioMobil Milan Vašina. â?śWe addressed eight agencies altogether from which we have chosen three for cooperation with RadioMobil.â?ť RadioMobilâ??s advertisements have always been appreciated by both expert and wide public â?" they ranked well in prestigious creative contests, they also won the EFFIE advertisement effectiveness competition and it can be expected that cooperation with other subjects will further reaffirm their position in this area.

Together with larger agencies such as EuroRSCG and DDB, two agencies will start working for Paegas â?" Tanagra and Conquest. â?śWe are convinced that smaller agencies have more and more to say in Czech advertising,â?ť explains Milan Vašina. â?śThey are very creative and flexible. With the aid of more agencies we will be able to inform customers about our services really in detail.â?ť

On the contrary, winners of the tender appreciated RadioMobilâ??s professional approach during the selection. Everyone unanimously agreed that the tender was assessed according to very objective criteria.
