Media All-Stars 2003: Introduction

We’ve come to the end of another tough year in the media business. Though many general-economy indicators look positive for 2004 as 2003 closes, even the once-unstoppable TV ad marketplace has practically ground to a halt. And anytime you end a year without momentum, it’s hard to build it up again.

But the 2003 Media All-Stars generate their own energy as they fight and win battles every day for their clients and their shops.

There’s Irwin Gotlieb, who’s proven year after year that he’s got the staying power to keep his MindShare and Mediaedge:cia agencies on top, with no client desertions and $1 billion in new business.
