CHICAGO–Ameritech’s $100 million account could be split between two shops, and the winning agency or agencies will have to establish a Chicago area office if one doesn’t exist, an Ameritech official said last week.





The Chicago-based communications company last week eliminated five agencies, including two incumbents, from the competition, leaving five shops in the running for the corporate, residential and business accounts.





The lone remaining incumbent is Chicago’s Leo Burnett, which handles Ameritech’s residential phone service and is media agency of record.
