Join us as we welcome Randy Snow, Vice President and Creative Director for R&R Partners, as he presents the strategy and inspiration behind the campaign turned modern-day catch phrase. Snow is an expert destination marketer, top strategic thinker, and no-holds-barred creative.

Snow’s mind is frighteningly sharp. No kidding. It’s scary. The guy knows everything. Do you know the torque of rocket fuel? Randy probably does. Not only does he have the inhuman ability to store knowledge like a squirrel preparing for winter, he has an uncanny ability to mine the information to produce remarkably insightful creative strategies. Thanks to Randy’s big brain, R&R consistently produces advertising that wins embarrassingly large amounts of industry awards.

Snow has been pushing the creative envelope for more than two decades, with a client list including the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA), Reno Sparks Convention and Visitors Authority, Nevada Commission on Tourism, and premier Las Vegas hotels and casinos including the MGM  Grand, Luxor, Excalibur, Circus Circus, and Bally’s. His award-winning work has appeared in Communication Arts, Archive, Adweek, and SHOOT  Magazines and The Wall Street Journal. Under Snow’s direction, R&R Partners has received honors including finalist positions in The One Show and back-to-back “Best of Show” ADDY awards.
