DVA is a full-service advertising and public relations agency with decades of experience and a senior team whose expertise spans branding, creative, media, and PR. We create meaningful, measurable connections between people and the places, products, and services they need — from destinations and financial institutions to healthcare organizations and lifestyle brands nationwide.
BRANDING
Brand is more than a logo. It’s how people feel when they interact with you. We uncover what’s true at the heart of an organization, then bring it to life through an identity that’s bold, flexible, and built to stand out across every touchpoint.
PUBLIC RELATIONS
Senior-led. Journalist-trained. Results-backed. Our PR team brings deep experience across industries and delivers an average 15:1 earned media coverage ratio. Media relationships, crisis communications, and thought leadership — fully integrated with broader strategy.
STRATEGIC PLANNING
We don’t start with tactics. We start with outcomes, then work backward to the marketing that delivers them. Using an OKR-inspired framework, we define objectives and measurable key results before a single ad is placed.
MEDIA PLANNING + BUYING
Full-funnel activation. Market-level ROI analysis you won’t get from off-the-shelf dashboards. We connect media exposure to real-world outcomes — room nights, deposit volume, and account openings. Transparent reporting built for boardroom scrutiny.
DIGITAL + SOCIAL MEDIA
We build digital ecosystems that perform — and optimize for where search is headed, not just where it is today. Our campaigns consistently beat industry benchmarks across Google Search and Meta, with SEO, GEO, paid social, and content strategy working as one integrated system.
INTEGRATED CREATIVE DEVELOPMENT
Campaigns that move people and drive results. From broadcast to TikTok to in-branch screens, our creative flexes across every channel — built by a senior team with extensive cross-industry experience. Scrappy, clever, big-swing, or easy-win: we build what the brief demands.
We’re based in Bend, Oregon — a mountain town with a reach that extends coast to coast and across industries. Our clients span destinations like Scenic Sedona and Explore Whitefish, financial institutions like SELCO Community Credit Union, healthcare organizations like PacificSource Health Plans, and some of the most recognized outdoor and lifestyle brands in the country. Wherever you are, we’re built to serve you.

FAQ
What kind of clients does DVA work with?
We specialize in destination marketing, financial services, healthcare, and sports and recreation — serving municipalities, DMOs, credit unions, regional banks, health plans, and lifestyle brands across the country.
How is DVA different from other agencies?
We’re intentionally small and senior-heavy. No revolving door of junior staff. No off-the-shelf solutions. Our partners stay directly involved in every account. We call it Bespoke > Big — the depth of a large firm with the agility and personal accountability of a boutique.
Where is DVA located?
Headquartered in Bend, Oregon, with team members embedded across the country — including Arizona, Massachusetts, and Colorado. Proximity matters, and we make it a priority to spend time where our clients are.
Every engagement starts with a conversation about where you are, where you want to go, and whether we’re the right partner to help you get there.
