Here's Our Plan

Fight Club

Cancer doesn't fight fair. That's why it was our job to make sure their advertising message didn't either. We pulled no punches when it came to this important brand attack.

Education is the Best Medicine

Outreach is the core to any good healthcare system. Adventist asked Michael Walters Advertising to contribute to this cause and we were glad to help. Sometimes the most important thing we do as an advertising agency has nothing to do with advertising. 

AH Whats Your Plan

We're not doctors, but we can save a life.

Although surpassing our quantitative goals feels great, the best kind of feedback we receive comes from community members. Patti Hobin from Tehachapi wrote to the local newspaper to explain how her husband's decision to visit Adventist Health Bakersfield was influenced directly by the TV ads we created; it brought him to the doctors who saved his life.

I am a believer! We have received more communication, support and visits from Michael Walters Advertising than we have ever gotten from our local buyers. They cut our costs and increased our spots on TV, Radio and outdoor. Keep it up!
