NEW YORK Midas, the auto service company, has awarded Publicis Groupe’s Starcom its media planning and buying account without a review, the client confirmed.
Midas spent $40 million in measured media in 2006, down from about $45 million the previous year, according to Nielsen Monitor-Plus.
Aegis Group’s Carat was the incumbent on the account, which it had held since 1998.
Starcom officials could not be reached and Carat representatives declined comment.
