The Martin Agency Shutters S.F. Outpost

SAN FRANCISCO—The Martin Agency last week shut its Northern California office, citing the slow economy. A key factor in the decision was the loss of a $10 million assignment from Charles Schwab. The project, which involved helping the brokerage appeal to women, was a major reason the Richmond, Va.-based shop opened an office here in the spring of 2000. Martin joins a growing list of agencies that have ceased operations in San Francisco, including Leo Burnett Technology Group, Saatchi & Saatchi and Lowe Lintas & Partners.
