LevLane Assigned Atlanta KFC Advertising Account

dBusiness News: After a one-month internal review, the Atlanta KFC Advertising Co-op, Atlanta, has named LevLane, Phila., as its first agency of record since the co-op’s formation in 2002. All review particpants, including Tracy-Locke, Dallas, and ESW Partners, Chicago, were existing KFC local co-op roster agencies. A 2011 budget of $2.5 million will go to TV, radio, digital (including mobile), print, P-O-P and Outdoor, with first promotions due to break in January.

Selection was based on a strategic sales-building plan. Atlanta KFC Advertising Co-op president Bill Byrd states, “LevLane demonstrated a solid understanding of what it takes to drive fast food sales, and also a solid commitment to partnering with us and to establishing representation here in our marketplace.”

LevLane vp, account director Chris Ponzio adds, “We are proud to be expanding our relationship with the KFC brand, and equally proud to receive this vote of confidence from their owner/operators—entrepreneurs who are vitally aware of what works day-in, day-out, to bring in hungry customers.”

The Atlanta KFC Advertising Co-op includes ten members in the Atlanta DMA. LevLane already manages six other KFC regional co-op accounts, in Vt., Mass., N.Y., Penn. and Fla.
