Burns Marketing expands in LoDo

Burns Marketing is doubling its staff and relocating to Lower Downtown.

The Johnstown, Colo.-based company is moving in May to 4,281 square feet in the Elephant Corral building at 1444 Wazee St. It’s leaving about 2,000 square feet of space in Zeppelin Development’s TAXI complex in the River North (RiNo) neighborhood.

The company is also expanding its Denver workforce from the four employees it currently has to about 10 people, says Mike Burns, the company's president and chief executive.

Burns founded the agency in 1972 with one client -- the worldwide non-profit Epsilon Sigman Alpha International, which is still one of its largest clients. Burns has helped the organization raise more than $150 million for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. 

The firm serves largely business-to-business clients in the technology, medical, and financial industries. Burns’ other clients include Hewlett-Packard, Intel and Advanced Energy.

Burns established its Denver presence last August with the acquisition of Ripcord, giving it a team of seasoned marketing experts with compatible capabilities. Burns also gained new businesses with the deal, including Dynamic Materials Corp., Computer Services Inc. and Science Applications International Corp.’s energy, environment and infrastructure division.
