Chief Technology Officer | Profile |
The Richards Group is the largest independent branding agency in the nation, with a staff of over 700 and annual billings above $1 billion. Creative is our passion, but we do have another love – independence. With zero absentee owners or outside investors, we`re free to focus solely on our work. Which is good, because there`s a lot of work to focus on: advertising, digital, relationship marketing, retail, brand, business-to-business, Hispanic marketing, sports marketing…there isn`t a form of branding at which The Richards Group doesn`t excel.
Noble People is a creative media agency. Media planning is half of that equation. The real aim of media planning is to find ways to spend the least amount of money possible to achieve your business goal. The key to achieving this is understanding that media can be anything between a brand and an audience and that technology and innovation beats scale. But unless you`re asking experienced people with integrity to take that task on, you`re probably just in the game of media spending. And that game favors the guy with the most money. The other half of the equation is creativity. Creative media planning means finding smarter ways to make an impact. It`s what media planning should be, but sadly isn`t, so we make that distinction. It means making that money count.
