"The drive of this agency is what sets it apart from other companies. When I can test each of their staff members representing my brands on what goes into a certain product, what the suggested retail should be, who the targeted consumer is and what the brand culture is about – and all of them recite without hesitation, it’s pretty telling you have the right group of ambassadors working for you.” --- Terrance A.
