Bissell is in the late stages of a review of its creative and media business, with the goal of consolidating everything at a single shop.

"We're combining creative, media and social at one agency," explained Theresa Junkunc, director of marketing communications at Bissell in Grand Rapids, Mich. "We wanted a more integrated campaign and sometimes it's hard to do that when you're working across agencies."

Currently, the assignments are split between independent Cramer-Krasselt (creative) and Omnicom Group's PHD (media).

In the review, Cramer-Krasselt, a full-service shop, is defending against two other finalists: Interpublic Group's Carmichael Lynch and independent Olson, according to Junkunc.
