All told, six agencies were briefed last week by Universal Studios executives searching for a shop to handlethe entertainment company’s estimated $30-40 million marketing business.
Client representative Jim Yeager identified the competing shops as Martin, Richmond, Va.; McKinney, Raleigh, N.C.; The Richards Group, Dallas; Deutsch, New York; Doner, Southfield, Mich.; and davidandgoliath, Los Angeles.
