About Us

Welcome to AdChat™ DFW

The mission of AdChat DFW is to create a robust, online news and promotional platform for the agency, marketing, production and film communities in Dallas-Ft. Worth, to showcase accomplishments and publicize upcoming events.

We launched in late 2015 and have not looked back. The communities have welcomed a central place to curate news about their peers and potential clients and also place to publish their own news.

And how we’ve grown!  Over the years our targeted site visits have increased over 400%. 

Please know this entire endeavor is about providing a showcase for YOU and it requires fresh and relevant content. We hope you find newsworthy information here and also choose to become a regular contributor in your area of expertise.
