Palermo advertising agency since 2006 for branding, web and performance marketing
About DRTADV
DRTADV is an advertising and communication agency in Palermo, Sicily. It is run by GIMI Comunicazioni SRLS Unipersonale from Via Simone Cuccia 45, 90144 Palermo. The agency has been active since 2006 and aims to be an agency with a 'digital soul'. Its team includes a digital marketing specialist and account manager (Giusi Caruso), a project manager (Chiara Calciolari), an art director and UX/UI designer (Marco Di Bella), a second art director and content creator (Federica Villanti), a performance marketer (Giulia Ardizzone) and a front-end developer (Salvo Bevilacqua). The founder goes only by the nickname 'Older Fish'.
Services fall under three headings: branding, content and performance. Branding covers strategy, positioning, storytelling, tone of voice, naming, logo design, corporate identity and rebranding. Web development covers websites, online shops, web apps, UX and UI design, SEO, hosting and domains, ongoing support, and GDPR and privacy policies. Digital marketing covers strategy, social media management and advertising, content marketing, newsletters, lead generation and digital advertising.
DRTADV does not market itself to dentists, but one project is close to dental patient acquisition. For UdiUp, an Italian network of hearing-care professionals and brands, the agency ran a performance programme aimed at qualified leads and a steady flow of new patients. That work used Google Ads, Meta Ads, native advertising, marketing automation, a website and social media. No lead or patient numbers are published.
Other published work covers local businesses and public bodies. For Gruppo Russotto, a Sicilian builder of industrial sheds and roofs, the agency handled corporate identity, the website, content, community management and advertising. For Millesuoli, a Sicilian online wine shop with a store in Caltanissetta, it provided branding, identity, web development and digital marketing. Client logos also include AMAP, Palermo's water utility, Sistema Tram Palermo, Emoteam, Lemon, OPRS and INC. The agency appears in a third-party list of Palermo communication agencies.
No prices, contract terms or reporting schedules are published. For a dental clinic in Palermo, the agency would offer brand identity, a new website with basic SEO, social content and paid campaigns run by an in-house performance specialist. A clinic that needs detailed local SEO or Google Business Profile management should ask how the agency handles these, as these are not published as separate services.
