However, the company’s expected desire to replace Saatchi with another global agency makes it unlikely those two agencies will get a shot at the business cut loose.
Helene Curtis on Friday said it is looking to hire a new agency to handle many of its consumer brands and that it already has narrowed the search to a few ‘creative powerhouses’ with which the company has relationships.
