The Lone Star Texas Grill team operates 20+ restaurants across Ontario, and we’ve come to rely on Dave Blanchard’s expertise to lead our province-wide media planning. Dave brings a genuine passion for our business and a clear focus on helping us meet our sales and traffic goals.
What started as a partnership in the Ottawa region has grown into a full-province collaboration. The results Dave helped us achieve made it an easy decision to expand his role. He continues to evolve our media strategy, incorporating innovative channels like digital out-of-home and connected TV to keep our brand top of mind.
Beyond media planning, Dave and his team have become trusted creative partners. They’ve played a key role in shaping our go-to-market strategy, particularly for radio and community activation initiatives.
Dave consistently goes the extra mile, advocating for our brand and ensuring we get the best possible value. He’s become part of the Lone Star family, and I look forward to working with him for many years to come.
I highly recommend Dave’s media and creative approach to anyone looking to build impactful campaigns — whether at a mass scale or targeted locally.

Just wanted to take a moment to say as we now celebrate our 7th year in partnership with Hot 89.9 and Newcap Radio, what a great partnership it has turned out to be.
Working together marketing our business for weddings – #1 priority, and as well now with our new business The Retreat and Spa, it has proven to be a winning formula for Strathmere. The goal was to have Strathmere set as the wedding venue of choice and as clients were ready to make the decision as to where to host their wedding and reception they would look to us first, and they do!
In saying that KUDOS to Dave Blanchard as our Account Executive, Dave, gets us and our product and helps us to stay on course with our messaging and continuing to get it out to the masses! His flexibility in working with us and for us has been a wonderful partnership, whether it is a run of commercials, wedding
contest or promo, special accent messaging, etc. Dave has our best interests and business success top of mind!
Great Work!

It is with great pleasure that I write this letter of recommendation for Dave Blanchard, Senior Media Sales Strategist at Stingray Radio in Ottawa, Canada.
Dave was introduced to me through one of his colleagues just a few months before the grand opening of Silverwood’s Golf & Lounge in November 2023. From day one, Dave brought a level of professionalism, creativity, and strategic insight that has had a lasting impact on our business.
Over the past several months, we’ve worked closely with Dave on a wide range of promotional initiatives aimed at building our brand and growing our reputation across Ottawa. Whether it was organizing charity tournaments around the city or designing in-house promotions tailored to our audience, Dave consistently demonstrated a deep understanding of what it takes to drive results. His advice has always been thoughtful, timely, and aligned with our goals, and he’s never steered us wrong.
Dave has quickly become more than just a marketing partner; we truly consider him a part of the Silverwood’s family. His commitment to our success is evident in every project we’ve taken on together, and we’re excited to continue collaborating with him, including a new campaign this coming summer.
I highly recommend Dave Blanchard to any business or organization looking for a results-driven, dedicated, and innovative marketing professional. His contributions have been invaluable to us, and I have no doubt he’ll bring the same energy and expertise to any endeavor he takes on.

Owner, Silverwood’s Golf & Lounge

maintain visibility in the off-season. Dave’s deep understanding of the radio and audio landscape, paired with his proactive, solutions-driven mindset, makes him an invaluable partner and a true pleasure to collaborate with.
