BellSouth may not have been able to merge with Sprint last week, but executives acknowledged a plan to combine one segment of their advertising account.
New York’s Merkley Newman Harty and WestWayne here, which split a variety of BellSouth accounts and share corporate branding duties, have been told there will be a shootout for the latter portion of the business, worth $20 million.
“There is a corporate consolidation of the account under way,” confirmed Deb Spicer, BellSouth’s director of corporate communications.
