Welcome
dahling, to my new regular column here at Anvil dedicated to all
things public and related here in beautiful Baghdad by the Bridge.
Lets get started shall we
By
now everyone has heard that the Benjamin Group is coming to town.
Rosie hears that every shop in town is battening down the hatches
and trying to think of clever new perks and benefits for employees
to ward off Benjis recruiters should they come calling. And they
will call honey, you better believe it.
The
PBJs list of Top 25 flack houses was out in July - who cares, you
might ask? Why every pitch shops king and queen who gussied up
their client list and made some "final edits" to their
audited revenue numbers, thats who. KVO, the perennial bridesmaid
and runner-up to WaggEd was on the list at number two again. But
with under $6 million in billings, Rosie cant help but cherish
the thought that some up-and-comer will take that spot next year.
Losing those inflated media buying billings since the ad meisters
were let go must really have put some varnish on the silver.
Speaking
of polishing the silver, enquiring minds want to know what Sharon
VanSickle (the V on the "KVO 1" vanity license plate)
and New Venture prez Ray Berardinelli were talking about not too
long ago at Sungari. Is there a little blowfish on the hook, ready
to be gobbled up by a new corporate parent?
Oh
my, olRosie has gotten herself all worked up now, and thats not
such a bad thing, but she needs to go consult with herself for a
little while, if you know what I mean. If you have a sweet morsel
to share, whisper it into Rosies ear at rosie@anvil-media.com.
