Working with Bugle Media Services for the “Picturing Mary-Woman, Mother, Idea” exhibit at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, DC has been an absolute pleasure. Their expertise and recommendations helped me deliver outstanding results in targeting our specific audience. The average ANNUAL attendance for NMWA is around 55k visitors. Thus far, Nov-mid March they have achieved over 45k visitors and the client believes they will top 55k by end of this exhibit on 4/12. Work is consistent, timely and detailed. Bob Bugle has been a valuable partner for our recent campaign exceeding all pre-campaign metrics. His level of service we get goes above and beyond.

I had the pleasure of working with Bob Bugle for the Catholic portion of our marketing campaign for our film “Bella” which released nationally in October, 2007 and I would highly recommend Bugle Media Services to any company for Catholic market media placement.

Bob displayed sound marketing judgment and a very thorough knowledge of the Catholic marketplace in particular. Bob understood clearly who our audience was and how to reach them, and his efforts were integral to our success.

quotesArtboard 1 copy 2

“Respect” and “appreciation” are the first words that come to mind when I think of Bob Bugle. The former because of his knowledge of, and command over, the advertising landscape, the latter for the time and effort spent honing my (and others’) skills to effectively develop and message today’s target marketing solutions. Bob is as passionate, sincere, and inspiring as he was when I met him in 1993, committing himself to his clients’ needs / objectives as if they were his own. I can only hope I’m able to pass along those traits, and his unyielding customer focus, to the next generation of media consultants as effectively as he has.

Bob Bugle is a seasoned professional in the media business. I’ve known Bob long enough to see him in positions on ‘both sides of the desk.’ As a Sales Manager, he was always fair to those he did business with. And very successful in terms of managing his team to hit their target goals.

In his current position at Bugle Media Services, he is very professional; very detail-oriented; and always keeping a watchful eye out for the best interest of his clients.


Bob and I both have in common that we are Past-Presidents of the Pittsburgh Radio and TV Club (now Media Assoc of Pittsburgh) which reflects his dedication to the betterment of the media community, and also reflects the admiration of his peers to get him to that position.

I recommend Bob highly. If you have further questions about Bob, don’t hesitate to contact me.
