LOS ANGELES Independent shop Ignited in El Segundo, Calif., has been named lead agency by Carnival’s Princess Cruises for creative and media chores following a review.

Media spending last year for Princess was $10 million, a big drop from $27 million in ’07, per Nielsen.

Consultancy Select Resources International in Santa Monica, Calif., led the search.

The previous agency on the Princess account was West Hollywood, Calif.-based Dailey & Associates, a unit of IPG.

The move to Ignited reflects a shift in marketing strategy as Princess aims to engage its sweet spot of seasoned cruisers in the 45- to 70-year-old age range through the Internet.
