Buffalo Business Focus: Media Pros
Thursday, March 25, 2010 at 10:00AM Local Media Agency Thriving in Western New York
It could be a radio ad. It could be a billboard. It could even be a street team. Pick the medium, and Media Pros of Western New York have a hand in it. Thats why they've become a prominent Buffalo business with both local and national clients.
"We like to be presented with challenges on the best way to reach an audience," said Matt Dobmeier, Media Pro's VP. "We'll use all forms of media to get the job done."
Media Pros are the minds behind the West Herr ads featuring Buffalo Bills legend Steve Tasker. The agency boasts a diverse group of other local clients including Beachwood Continuing Care, Martin's Fantasy Island and Faherty's Bar on Elmwood.
On a national level, Media Pros handles the Mentholatum Company and their multiple product lines. The national business has given Dobmeier and his crew opportunities to travel and gain new experience.
"This line of work is never boring," Dobmeier said. "Last year I got to go from the Duke campus to Las Vegas all within a few weeks. It was amazing."

Established in 1993 and based in Orchard Park, Dobmeier and his father Ken run the business. Dobemeier points out that advertising agencies are rarely a family business.
Given the family focus, Dobmeier finds his roots in Western New York despite all the traveling and national exposure.
"It sounds cliche, but the people in Buffalo are amazing," Dobmeier said. "People here truly care and they love to live here. It lends itself to the work they do."
Media Pros has recently done work for The United Way and SABAH as well. For more information on Media Pros visit them online today.
