Results matter. Our campaigns are about results, not about making our creative people famous among peers.

“As a startup non-profit, we were nervous to spend the money to hire a marketing company to help us get our message out to our target audience. Hiring Burford Advertising was the best decision we have made in our 3 years of existence. In less than a year, they have helped us reach over 450K of our target audience. The creativity and professionalism has been unprecedented. The entire Burford family and staff have been a pleasure to work with.”

The Frank Woolwine Story
“We cannot say enough about Burford Advertising and how helpful Ardis and her team have been launching our new marketing campaigns for online, outdoor, print and television. They always brought multiple ideas to the table and really made an effort to maintain our brand with fresh perspective. They listened to feedback and implemented changes quickly with respect to ad deadlines. It’s an absolute no brainer, there is a reason they have been so successful over the years.”

“Burford Company helped us take Jackson Hewitt Tax Services to over 2,000 locations in 2 years. Our stock went from $4.50 to $68 making it the leading gaining stock in the United States that year. We sold the company for $480 million.”
Keith Allessi - Former President
Jackson Hewitt Tax Services
“Burford has done a marvelous job of executing our core vision. Their deft execution of the vision through the “Ted” character and the “Paw Paw Patch” have enabled us to tell the story in a memorable but, most importantly actionable format. The “Summer Hot Sheet” campaign and the “Christmas SPCA” messaging are great examples of platforms and graphics carefully designed for reuse, with a minimum studio cost.  These efforts allowed us to maximize the dollars allocated for media, thereby producing leadership sales results.”
Ted Linhart - Chairman and CEO
Dominion Auto Group
“In the 45 years I’ve been in the business I’ve made a lot of mistakes, but hiring Burford wasn’t one of them.”

“His team is very good at media and the account service has been excellent. When we first joined up with Burford we had 8 locations.  Today we’re up to 15 locations and our business has essentially doubled.”

“I think on the basis of sheer creativity, on the basis of attentiveness and on the basis of responsiveness, I don’t think anyone could find a better organization than Burford Company.  Doug Burford is a nice guy…that helps.”
Bill Dixon - Former COO

“The supermarket business for advertising is a nightmare because we are changing prices up to the time we shoot the spot and we’ve never had a problem with Burford being able to respond. I would recommend and have recommended Burford to a number of clients. And I recommend them because I believe they have the creative ability to cut through the clutter of media today and get your message across.”
Mike Julian - Former Chairman, CEO & President
Farm Fresh Supermarkets
“Burford Advertising is an ideal partner for ChildSavers. We collaboratively wrote, filmed and produced a moving, high quality television spot to raise awareness about our critical work in the greater Richmond community. Burford helped to develop the storyline, handled the production and negotiated the placement of the spot on television. Doug and the team exercised patience and provided tremendous support throughout the process.”
L. Robert Bolling - CEO
ChildSavers
“The Burford team jumped right in; they guided and helped us update our very dated approach across a multitude of marketing disciplines.  They moved in unison with our pace. They listened and learned our business, were responsive, and always focused towards the ultimate goal of cost-effective marketing executions with brand continuity.  The result is (and will be) a growing and expanding relationship based on mutual respect.”
