Celebrating our 14th Anniversary, the day our President and Founder, Martin Thomas left corporate advertising and began working on creating what would eventually be Always On Communications.

AOC was "officially" founded in June 2009, but we unofficially got going starting February 20, 2009 after our founder left his corporate advertising job and began consulting for a former client.

Since then, we've provided media planning and buying services for dozens of clients located in multiple states including California, Texas, Illinois, New Jersey, and New York.

Here's a look at our team across the years.

2020 has been a year of changes for all of us. On top of the regular challenges of working remotely, helping clients who lost distribution, and constantly adjusting our media plans to account for stay-at-home orders and the rapidly changing media landscape, two of the more personal changes that affected AOC this year are not sending out holiday cards and, for the first time since we were founded in 2009, not hosting a holiday dinner to thank our wonderful team for a great year.

Instead, we combined our holiday cards and fellowship this year with a "Holiday Listen Party" on Zoom, with a collaborative playlist of holiday songs contributed by our team, our clients, and our partners. You can listen to our playlist here - an eclectic mix of songs, both new and traditional: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0wzkA2C8qwtHFMCEQFtP3M?si=0Hyu6KpPTtCJkX-F8bDpuQ

We wish everyone a wonderful holiday season, and a happy, healthy, and prosperous 2021.

Cheers!

Tonight's and with workmates from Team , who also happen to be friends. Interestingly, the person on here I've known the "least" is and I've known her for nearly 13 years!

I sent cocktail recipes to everyone ahead of time, with advice on how to tweak the recipe if ingredients weren't available.

Original recipe was Blanco Tequila, Dry Vermouth, Lemon Juice, Simple Syrup, Muddled Cucumber, and Cilantro. Nobody made it the same way.

For mine, because I didn't have cilantro, I swapped the Tequila for Gin, and used a combination of rosemary and sage for my herbs.

Some folks didn't have dry vermouth so they subbed white wine. One person is allergic to citrus juice and another didn't have citrus, so they both subbed apple cider vinegar. One guy didn't have cucumber, so he left them out. And it all seemed to work. People prepped, tasted, adjusted, and drank.

These have been spotted in the wild, so we can reveal our 2019 holiday card design, by our designer .real.cherylistic.

This year's design steps a bit away from our geek roots and instead provides a nostalgic look at some of our favorite holiday memories over the years, and invites others to share their own memories with the hashtag

Cheers and Happy Holidays!
