Call them the little -- or not so little really -- ad agency that can perform. Even in the toughest of times. We're talking about Tom, Dick & Harry/Chicago, which informed us it achieved 12 percent growth in 2009, with billings that now exceed $25 million. Now TD&H is now looking for a larger space to house the agency in the Gallery District in River North.

TD&H partners Bob Volkman, David Yang, Michael Herlehy, Greg Reifel and Don Brashears reported that the eight-year-old agency grew in 2009 from existing clients including the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America and Mission Investment Fund, as well as new clients including Bally Total Fitness and new assignments from Peoples Gas, AirCell, Premier Dermatology and Discover Card. TD&H's digital unit also turned in a strong performance in 2009.
