Craftsmen and artists, strategists and creative thinkers. All on point, to be sure. But at Hart we think of ourselves as builders. Nontraditional thinkers who know that execution and follow-through are as critical as the ideas themselves. Drawn to how things work, we’re driven to make them work even better. Let’s create something beautiful and functional, strong and elegant, that will stand the test of time and deliver on the full weight of its promise. Let’s build something greater together.
Who we are
Hart is a growing, full-service advertising agency that has been in business for 50 years, but has very nearly doubled in size over the last five. What's been responsible for our longevity and success? A few things. One is our dedication to strategy and insight. All creative at Hart is informed. Then there's the work itself – sharp, smart, human, engaging, but never creative for creativity's sake. Analytics is another. We always want to know what results were achieved and if there's room to improve on those results. And finally, service. We view client service as an integral part of creating the best possible communications. Open, honest dialogue always leads to more effective work.
It’s not every day you get the chance to be this much greater.
Hart is acquiring Conrad Phillips Vutech (CPV) to become one of Ohio’s largest independent advertising agencies and expand its Columbus operations.
The acquisition enables Hart and CPV to provide even greater value to our clients. We’re now better positioned than ever to provide clients with the scale and integration necessary to successfully orchestrate strategic, data-driven marketing programs that are essential in today’s ever-evolving marketing environment. We’ve been intentional about maintaining our roots as a mid-size agency, and we will continue to retain the agility, service and client partnership that have been a hallmark of both agencies. But we’re also staged for long-term growth by adding significant and complementary depth in capability, insight and resources.
The similarities in Hart and CPV backgrounds are stunning. Both agencies were founded 50 years ago, both have experienced significant growth in similar industries and both share a commitment to innovation, stability and results for our clients. This acquisition builds upon 50-year legacies in Toledo and Columbus and accelerates our momentum for the future. We can’t wait to show you where we can go together.

What we do
Truth be told, we’re not just one agency, but many. An advertising agency at our core, but one with many spokes. Digital, creative, media, branding, public relations, video production, social media marketing and more … all under a single roof. But it’s not what we do, so much as how we do it, that makes Hart special.
