Interesting facts

“Spooktacular” - Team Detroit is transformed into a cavalcade of emersion experiences for the Halloween season. Months before, the planning begins, groups can be found in secreted conversations and closed door meetings, planning all the details - who will bring the fog machine, who will build the dungeon door – oh and what kind of candy will we hand out? It's a spectacular sight to see!
“Bring your Child to Work Day” This year, 125 "Jr. Ad Executives" (our children) enjoy a sport-filled day as they were asked to develop a campaign for our newest client, Sports Authority. After a day of touring and hands-on experiences the children broke into teams and developed an ad and then presented a show stopping pitch to a room of proud parents. T-shirts, swag bags, medals and handmade posters were the day's take away along with a fantastic introduction to advertising and marketing.
Stereo 550 - Local and national artists stop by and perform mini-concerts for our employees. It's a great way to get away from your desk/office and enjoy great music with your friends/co-workers.
