Brand Tango Wins Nine ARDY Awards

Southeast Florida marketing and advertising firm's clients win nine awards in the American Resort Development Association's ARDY awards program.

Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. (PRWEB) March 5, 2007 -- At the 2007 American Resort Developments Association's Awards Gala, Brand Tango's staff will be on pins and needles. "Nine of our client's projects have already been awarded silver ARDYs, so we're very much looking forward to see how they do in the competition for ARDY Gold," says Joe Russoniello, president of the Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.-based marketing and advertising firm. "We're thrilled to have done so well against competition from much larger agencies and in-house teams."

Brand Tango's work for Sunterra Corp., Laguna Suites, Grand Incentives, Island One, Premier Cancun Vacations, King's Creek, and all received ARDA honors. "We're very grateful to these companies for entrusting us with their brand and image," Russoniello says. "As a relatively young agency--we've only been in business for two years now--it's a real boost of confidence to have our client's work win this many awards."

In addition to the Advertising and Promotions awards, Brand Tango's technology team won in the Management and Administration category. The team, led by Larry Talley, vice president of application development provided its expertise to five major timeshare developers in 2006, creating 11 Web sites and four Web-based applications.

Brand Tango's president is Joe Russoniello, who leads a team with more than three decades of vacation ownership experience in marketing and creative services for timeshare and hospitality, including cutting-edge owner kits, out-of-the-box owner referral programs, clean transactional online marketing solutions, and multi-award-winning collateral materials. Along with co-founder and industry creative veteran James Kluetz and IT professional partner Larry Talley, who heads up Internet applications, Russoniello engages leading writers, designers, and project managers appropriate for each client. Through an affiliation with Pinpoint Communications, a Deerfield, Fla.-based agency, where Kluetz is vice president and creative director, Brand Tango has access to a scalable creative team allowing it to provide an array of resources to its diverse client base.

Recent Brand Tango projects include work for Trendwest Resorts, Elite Getaways and Coast to Coast. Other clients include vacation-ownership industry leaders, such as Island One Resorts, Sunterra Corp., Fairfield Resorts, Royal Resorts Group, Textron Financial/Resort Finance Division, Sunset Group, Ed McMullen & Associates, and Grand Incentives.
