Wieden+Kennedy, 2010 Agency of the Year

Barrett Rossie

As always, Dan Wieden is eminently quotable. “If you told me six or seven years ago that some of the best work this agency would do would be for Procter & Gamble, I’d think you have a drug problem.”  (See Ad Age article.)

2010 Ad Age Agency of the Year: W+K

Meet Ad Age’s 2010 Agency of the Year, Wieden + Kennedy. You remember them, right? Edited to add: W+K was also named Creativity Agency of the Year.

The nicest part of the story:  It wasn’t so much their work for new clients that sparked their great year – though they’ve done notable work for Delta Airlines and Chrysler. Rather, most of their growth and notable work came from existing clients, as they’ve strengthened relationships, built trust and did some kick-ass work. (And created the most remarkable social media campaign of all time. Take that, digerati.)

Comments welcome at the end of this post. Or email me directly.

Congratulations Dan Wieden, Susan Hoffman and your cast of hundreds.
