Sam’s Story
Advertising, marketing and graphic design have been Sam’s passion for years! From initially working with big and small ad agencies to ultimately opening his own agency in the late 90’s, you’ve seen his creative work all over the NW and beyond.
In early 1998, Sam started Impact Advertising, working directly with businesses, ad agencies and some of the biggest NW event promotors. He became the go-to guy for visually building success. His creative work was (and still is) all over the NW.
In 2012, Sam got an offer he couldn’t refuse from a nationally recognized ad agency. He also started the very popular NW show band, Thrillride. All was good, but he missed working directly and personally with clients. From the years with agencies, Sam realized he could offer clients more direct, focused and affordable service than the agencies were offering.
So, in 2024, Sam started Lotsa Gotcha…a unique, results-driven and affordable creative service that drastically improves businesses, events and bands alike!
Sam: Marketing Guy
As you saw in the homepage collage, Sam Harmon has created and produced countless, extremely effective visual solutions for a very wide variety of clients and ad agencies alike.
What makes Sam’s work so effective is his highly advanced understanding of what entices and motivates people to passionately respond to marketing. He then creates promotional visuals that target exactly what consumers want and need. This is a special talent that sets Sam apart from others.
Creativity only works if it’s relatable to the potential buyer. Here’s a fun way to explain this: Create ‘bait’ that your ideal ‘fish’ will bite on. If you don’t get the bait right, you’ll be wasting your ‘cast’, along with all the time and money you spent ‘fishing’.
This entire website is packed with examples of ‘bait’ that worked great!
