Publicis here is releasing new advertising for Computer City despite the client’s pending sale to rival CompUSA.
Publicis will debut a 30-second spot this week in Phoenix to coincide with a store opening and continue radio work that has aired for two months. “It’s business as usual,” said agency co-chairman Steve Price last week, after the deal was unveiled. “Computer City is still a client and we’re moving forward.”
Price admits CompUSA is likely to close or convert Computer City’s 96 stores in the future.
