Turchette Advertising

What Turchette Advertising does

Turchette Advertising is a privately held, full-service B2B marketing and public relations agency headquartered in Parsippany, New Jersey. Founded in 1950 by Ernest B. Turchette, the firm claims to be the longest continuously run advertising agency in New Jersey and serves enterprise and mid-market clients in industrial equipment, manufacturing, pharmaceutical/life sciences, packaging and processing, food and beverage, HVAC, automation, and financial services. Its core service offering covers branding, digital marketing, SEO/GEO/LLM optimization, public relations, creative design, video production, account-based marketing, lead generation, and trade show support, delivered through a senior core team under President Jim Gorab (since 2011) with Chairman Michael Gavin.

Turchette monetizes primarily through professional services fees on an agency-of-record or project basis, with an average client tenure exceeding 15 years and a roster including Fujitsu General America, Brother, Catalent, PCI Pharma Services, Aptar CSP Technologies, Beckhoff, Genworth (30+ years), American Standard/Ariston Group, and HERMA. In 2025 the agency launched LeadVelo®, a proprietary marketing automation and CRM platform bundling lead management, email/SMS automation, pipeline tracking, call tracking, social media management, and website building with unlimited contacts and users, delivered alongside its service engagements rather than as a standalone SaaS. A wholly-owned sub-brand, Turchette Studios, provides in-house video and photography production.

The agency's go-to-market is direct enterprise sales supported by account directors, supplemented by a free 30-minute consultation CTA, industry trade show presence (Automate, AHR Expo, INTERPHEX, Pack Expo, IFT, SupplySide West), and ongoing content marketing. Turchette is independently owned under multi-generational leadership (Turchette, Callus, Gavin, Gorab) with no disclosed private equity or outside institutional ownership, and operates with 11-50 employees serving clients across the United States and, via agency-of-record relationships, Europe.
