Smith & Harroff (S&H) was founded in 1973 by J. Brian Smith and the late Mark Harroff. The firm initially established its reputation as a highly successful political consulting and advertising agency known best for winning seemingly “unwinnable” races. Until 2002, S&H produced advertising for 10-15 candidates in each election cycle and, with over a hundred victories, we had one of the best win-loss records in the business.

For several years, the Regional Bell Operating Companies had sought to have Congress deregulate telecommunications markets. Long distance companies benefited from a status quo that enabled them to encroach on local Bell company telephone markets while “Baby Bells” were barred from providing long distance services.
