GoMobile Advertising, after only a year and a half in
business, was honored this week amidst advertising
giants at the 2007 OBIE awards sponsored by the
Outdoor Advertising Association of America (www.
oaaa.org). GoMobile was one of six finalists selected
in the Special F/X category out of 1200 nominations.
Kent-based GoMobile was nominated for
their campaign with IKEA in 2006.
GoMobile, the David in a land of Goliaths, was competing
with global agencies BBDO New York, Leo
Burnett USA and three-time agency of the year
award winner TBWA/Chiat/Day. A finalist at the
2007 OBIE’s, GoMobile President Chris Schuler was
thrilled to be a finalist for one of the advertising
industry’s oldest and most prestigious awards. “It
was an honor and a victory for us as a company and
the mobile advertising industry,” Said Schuler. “We
were the only mobile outdoor advertising company
nominated.”
