Robert, better known as Tag in the industry, has been working in luxury brands for over 25 years. While he launched his career on mainstream brands like Citibank, the Empire State Building and Budget Rent-A-Car, he was bitten by the luxury bug at 21 years old when he was offered a chance to launch Helmsley Hotels including the Palace, the Park Lane, St. Moritz, and the New York Helmsley/Harley Hotel. He became the "winningest" creative at Miami's largest agency amassing walls full of regional and national awards.

At the ripe old age of 25, he opened his own agency heralded by ADWEEK as "the agency to watch." As TAG Advertising prepares to celebrate 20 years of luxury brands, it has a wealth of experience in luxury categories including: Hospitality & Travel, Financial, Spas & Personal Care Products, Restaurants, Jewelry & Antiquities, Furniture, Wines & Spirits, Fashion, Cruise Lines, Automotive, Gourmet Food, Sailing & Power Yachts, Real Estate, Media, Eyewear, Transportation, Thoroughbred & Grand Prix Racing, Cultural Events and almost anything else you can imagine.

Tag has earned hundreds of regional, national and international awards for creative excellence as well as a few dozen international marketing awards. Among them are National Addys and a World Medal from the New York Festivals. He is on the board of the world's largest advertising competition and was named 2002 President of the Year by the American Advertising Federation in Washington, D.C. He has received the highest award, the AAF Silver Medal, from the Miami Advertising Federation as well as "Advertising Person of the Year" honors. He was educated in the US and France and speaks Spanish and French. He nurtures advertising professionals by teaching graduate-level courses at the CP+B Miami Ad School.

About the New Member Company:

Taglairino Advertising Group (TAG Advertising) is one of the top boutique US advertising firms specializing in luxury brands. Like "general-market" advertising counterparts, TAG has experience with a variety of different industries. Instead of a typical mass-market bank, they work with Northern Trust -- which quietly boasts assets of over a trillion dollars in assets and a market share of 1 in 5 US multimillionaires. Instead of HoJos or Holidays Inns, they represent names like Fairmont, Mandarin Oriental and legendary independent members of The Leading Hotels of the World® including Biltmore, Elbow Beach and Turnberry Isle. In automotive, they launched Mercedes-Benz Centers of Distinction from coast to coast. In the cruise segment they've worked with Royal Viking Line and Star Clippers...as well as The Moorings® sailing yachts. The agency has an amazing track record for increasing the return on advertising investments for luxury products and services.

With nearly 20 years of experience with luxury brands, they have created innovative programs in just about every luxury or premium category. The company operates as a multidisciplinary extension of the client marketing teams offering "Strategic Creative," comprehensive communications solutions including cross-sales, web and CMR; and superior media planning and rates. Strategic Creative makes a huge difference to the bottom line. Without any increases in advertising spending, TAG clients experience 10%-1000% increases simply by changing the message.
