LET YOUR FINGERS DO THE TYPING

Can’t find an agency’s Web site? There’s a new online service that is developing city-specific directories of ad shop venues.
The service was conceived by Joel Cohen of The Cohen Marketing Group in Houston. Cohen noticed he couldn’t find many ad agencies through regular search engines.
“You pull up ad agencies in any city, maybe five percent of them come up,” said Cohen. With that in mind, he created www.houstonadagencies.com as a prototype site.
The project has since expanded to cover 12 other cities: Atlanta; Dallas; Denver; Phoenix; Seattle; Minneapolis; Pittsburgh; Nashville, Tenn.;
