“Our agency superpower has long been led by empathy-driven insights. We’re now looking to validate human insights with data points to build a stronger case for marketing investment with our client partners. We know that having the most sophisticated data practice is integral to growing into those responsibilities as AOR,” said Dave Imre, CEO and Partner at imre. “The rich experience Matt and Chris bring to our mix of services is spotlighting the efficacy of the amazing programs we’re already developing with our partners, and we’re pleased to welcome them!”
“It’s important we take an imaginative approach to data to help make decisions on the next best action, and the opportunity to bring this mindset to a quickly growing organization, reimagining how we think about data, is an exciting proposition, said Matthew. “It’s been a pleasure to jump in with my cross-discipline partners to align our approach and focus on what is most important to our client partners, and I’m encouraged to see where the agency is headed.”
The team expects to continue growing the data practice with additional services and key hires in the coming months.
