Who’s joining the Wal-Mart Bentonville fly-in on Friday?
On Friday of this week, all mainstream agencies in the final phase of the agency review process have been requested to appear for a briefing of the last round of the agency review. Along with the invitation to all mainstream agencies, all multicultural agencies in the last round have also been invited to observe the process.
Sitting in the bushes overlooking the Wal-Mart headquarters in Bentonville, Arkansas we have place our HispanicAd.com cyber camera. We expect to see incumbent Houston-based Lopez Negrete Communications, Austin-based LatinWorks and Miami-based Accentmarketing joining the briefings.
Could there be a wildcard?
We will have to wait and see if our cyber-camera tells all.
In memory of Martin Barreto.
Your contributions as a human being to this world and our Industry have made it a better place for all of us. Descanza en Paz.
