A veteran of the advertising industry, she (Robin Imholte) has adapted nicely to the major shifts that have taken place in her field. A passionate MOMpreneur, she launched the immensely popular Thrive Advertising – easily one of the firms to watch… She’s known in many circles as a smart, tough and savvy businesswoman… She’s also an enthusiastic, action-oriented visionary who thrives on a challenge.

Thrive won the Coastal Hotels account because of two things: follow-up, capability and flexibility. Okay, that’s three. Robin’s quick and thorough follow-up to the RFP made for a convenient decision. And Thrive’s professional capabilities were readily apparent. Regarding flexibility, in today’s economy and especially for the hospitality industry, Kiri’s flexibility both in terms of approach and attitude is critical to success. Also, Thrive has been able to grow along with our portfolio of hotels.

Robin is an invaluable partner to our marketing department, and to our organization as a whole. She is extremely knowledgeable about the media and advertising industries, and has a knack for putting together creative and insightful packages that encompass the entire marketing mix. Robin and her team have helped us with both our long-term advertising strategy and timely promotional efforts, while keeping our target audience, mission statement, and goals to serve our community at the heart of it all. She knows the true cost and reach of placements across broadcast television, radio, digital, and social media and works to make sure that we are getting the best value. Robin and her team at Thrive understand our mission of serving the unique Seattle market as a not-for-profit financial cooperative, and help us get our message to cut through the static.

Thrive Advertising is a highly collaborative and strategic team. Thrive’s diligence and open communication provided us with a positive, teamwork dynamic that produced effective results. Thank you for all of your continued efforts, responsiveness and innovation. Keep up the great work!

Thrive Advertising Company has been great to work with and has been tremendous in advice on scheduling and budget. If you wish to succeed in advertising then you should call Thrive.

Robin knows marketing, not just the traditional forms of media but she understands how businesses need to reach their targets. There are not very many people or businesses that I recommend, but Thrive is one.

Robin’s professionalism, acumen and deep network has made her a consultant I turn to again and again. Since our first project, I’ve repeatedly relied on Robin to deliver strategic, targeted and thoroughly negotiated media plans – both on the client and the agency side. I trust her implicitly, she always has her eye on the end game, she moves fluidly in roles where she’s represented my companies and, behind the scenes, she’s always looking for opportunities that might not have revealed themselves in the first stage of planning. Robin has a permanent spot in my little black book.
