Tim Hellige
Chief Stategist
Because most of his career has involved working with consumer and retail products and services, few people have the branding experience (and range) of Tim Hellige. After earning his undergraduate degree in marketing from the University of Louisville and an MBA from Bellarmine University, Tim took worked on notable Fortune 500 companies like American Airlines, Hibernia Corporation and Oldsmobile. Before entering the ad agency business he was the National Advertising Manager for Devoe Paint. And, at BCH, Tim has been a powerful hands-on force behind brands like the Louisville Zoo, World Championship Wrestling, Bluegrass Cellular, Four Roses Bourbon, Mid America Bancorp, Cucos Mexican Cafe, Time Saver Stores and, one of his biggest brand image accomplishments, the new Frazier Historical Arms Museum. But Tim has always been ready for a challenge. That’s why back in 1989, when he was presented with the opportunity to buy out Bon Advertising with Susan and Mark and start Bandy Carroll Hellige, he took it without a second thought – after all, it was just another new brand he knew he was ready to launch.

Matt Kamer
Partner
Doughnuts to dental insurance. Airports to casinos. Matt has worked his magic for a broad and interesting array of clients during his twelve years in PR, including Krispy Kreme, Toyota Manufacturing, Caesars Indiana, Louisville Regional Airport Authority. Of course, his highest profile stint was as Deputy Communications Director for Louisville Mayor Jerry Abramson, where he developed strategies, held news conferences, created media materials, and conducted media training for key administration staff. Matt’s a solid pro at media and community relations, market introduction, and issue and crisis management – one of those people who is so good you wonder what you ever did without him.
