What’s new at Park since the last time we talked.

We have increased our Digital panel total to 38.  We’ve grown this number from 12, in 2016.   We’ve learned that digital allows us to be very nimble, reduces operations workload and forces deeper creative conversations with clients.
What’s one thing you learned at last week’s IBO show?
As for IBO, it reinforced the importance of outstanding creative.  As you know, we took the bill by the horns and are hosting a Creative Summit in early November.  This all day session will be facilitated and led by industry respected Melody Roberts.
