Sometimes you get so caught up in the moment that you forgot to stop and look around. That was almost the case with the inaugural Meatball Street Brawl that Telesco Creative Group and client Osteria 166 helped to create. 2 years ago, the idea was conceived, but the...
A celebration in one word. 6 measly letters to create a moment. It always makes me happy. (Truthfully, it generally is spoken with a beverage in hand. Maybe that has something to do with it.) Regardless, we are proposing a toast to our newest endeavor that has...
There's no escaping the power, and importance, of social media in marketing today. However, when working with agencies, many businesses don't know if they should outsource their social media to an agency or keep it in house. Even after deciding to give the work to an...

Beautiful memory written by Michael Bierut.
Sometimes we joke that we are different because we know we are the same. A lot of businesses are like that. However, as a business, you need to define what it is that truly makes you different. We recently helped our friendly neighborhood printer through this process....
Opening Day of Major League Baseball season is here. It is a sign that birds will be chirping and the sun will be shining (however we did get 4-inches of snow on Saturday in Buffalo.) We are happy once again to have helped MLB Network launch their coverage of Opening...
I have waited a while to comment on the Target photo retouching debacle. I was waiting not because I wanted to see how Target spun the story, but to see if they were going to admit what actually happened. From my eyes, it looks like the person doing the retouching...
Who doesn't like frozen yogurt? OK, who doesn't like to put crushed up Kit Kats and Whoppers on top of anything? Now that we have that established, we wanted to introduce you to Chill Buffalo Frozen Yogurt at 2860 Niagara Falls Blvd. in Amherst, NY. We are honored to...

The school year is starting up and so is the new branding campaign we created for Mount St. Mary Academy. The goal of the campaign is to let middle school girls and their families know that the Mount believes in a lot of things with their educational offerings, but...
Cal. Oregon State. Arizona State. All 3 of them have updated their logos and/or uniforms for the upcoming 2013 schedules. We did not create the looks, but it is exciting to see how they did it. Take a look at the video revealing the Cal look by Nike. Great to hear the...
From time to time I go back and look at things that have inspired me in the past. An old Apple ad. The Mesa Grill logo. Pearl Jam. Whatever it is for you, it is good to look at stuff. Well, today is one of those days that I began marching down the road of inspiration...
Mad Men comes back this weekend for another season full of the sexiest profession in America (says the owner of an advertising agency.) It is true that advertising is full of "zany" brainstorming sessions and late nights, but I have to tell you, I do not have crystal...
Today is Opening Day at Coca-Cola Field in sunny Downtown Buffalo. The Buffalo Bisons kick off their first season as the AAA team of the Toronto Blue Jays. There is always that reminder on Opening Day that summer is around the corner. We are extra excited because our...

As I sit here staring out my window and see the snow outside in March, I am reminded of a product that one of our clients recently launched—The Costanzo's Original Spicy Buffalo Roll. That's right, hot sauce and red pepper flakes baked into the roll. And yes, it is as...
Congratulations to our client, Becky Farbo, from Phillips Lytle for winning Odysseus Award at the Buffalo Addy's show last night. A great client and friend that is well-deserving of such an honor. A special congratulations to our Telesco Creative Group team for...
