BOSTON - Antler, a new Boston-based experiential and digital marketing agency, today announced its official public launch with Antler Gives A Buck. The quarterly competition will reward winning non-profit organizations with complimentary branding and social media marketing services. The contest launched this week, and is open to all non-profit organizations to enter by visiting Facebook. To be considered, organizations entering the inaugural Antler Gives a Buck contest must submit information about their organization by June 30, 2010. A panel of judges will select eight finalists who will then compete in a public voting forum on Antler's Facebook page. The organization that has rallied the most support after a three-week voting period will take home the Buck.

"Antler believes in doing good, and with our Gives a Buck program we are making an ongoing commitment to help others who do good," says Luke Garro, co-founder at Antler. "For years our team has worked closely with a number of excellent non-profit organizations and has even created and launched many internal initiatives to help the world in which we live."

Non-traditional marketing pioneers Terry Lozoff and Luke Garro founded Antler in November 2009. Both were co-founders of Street Attack, a top alternative marketing agency that has been a thought leader in the word of mouth and street marketing space since 2001. In the six months since Antler was founded, the company has taken on a dozen clients including Boston-based international news organization GlobalPost and well-known international spirits brand Magners Irish Cider. The company currently has 15 employees.

"We have always believed that marketing is about connecting brands and consumers in meaningful and innovative ways," says Antler President and CEO, Terry Lozoff. "With Antler, we bridge the gap between online and offline, and strive to push the thinking on how social media, content and experience shape our relationships with brands, products and businesses. Our experienced team comes from a rich background in non-traditional marketing, new media and social marketing. With this range of experience and our commitment to staying at the forefront of change and innovation, we help our clients navigate the new marketing landscape with an upper hand."
