Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment Awards Cactus Three-Year
Contract

DENVER, Aug. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Cactus, a Denver-based full service ad
agency, has been selected as the agency of record for the Center for Healthy
Living and Chronic Disease Prevention at the Colorado Department of Public
Health and Environment (CDPHE). The three-year contract will extend Cactus'
partnership with CDPHE to more than seven years.
    "From day one, Cactus has been committed to making Colorado a better place
to live, work, prosper and raise healthy children. This has certainly been the
case working with CDPHE," said Joe Conrad, Cactus founder and strategic
director. "With their support and guidance, we have been determined to create
world-class campaigns that resonate with the audience, produce high-impact
results and generate the greatest return on investment for the funds created
by Amendment 35 (the 2004 voter-approved tobacco excise tax designated for
public health programs)."
    Winning the new CDPHE business is big for Cactus, which has doubled its
staff and revenue in the last two years, quickly approaching $20 million in
client billings. Last August, Cactus won the significant Colorado Lottery
account and continues to grow relationships with clients including University
of Colorado Hospital and Westwood College.
