Our CEO, Pete Lempert, recently joined Joanne Davis of Joanne Davis Consulting and Love’s CMO, Pat McLean, on stage at the ANA Advertising Financial Management Conference to talk about the importance of client-agency relationships that start and stay strong. 

In short, great work requires great relationships.

And the best partnerships are built via earlier, more honest alignment, where every stakeholder is brought to the table and stays connected over time. When everyone is aligned from the beginning, trust compounds. Relationships grow stronger. The work gets better. And you move from transactions to true partnership. 
 
We know this firsthand because we have great partners. Special thanks to Joanne Davis and Pat McLean for joining Pete on stage this week.

To celebrate our ten-year partnership with the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, TRG surprised our clients with an art piece commemorating all the campaigns, partnerships, and activations we’ve created together. The work bears the Choctaw Nation’s brand platform, Together We’re More, which has defined our relationship since the very beginning. Cheers to the next ten!

Huge congratulations to April Iseral on being named Media Buyer of the Year (for the fifth time!) last week at the Alliance for Women in Media Awards of Excellence Gala. An incredible milestone and a testament to her consistency, leadership, and impact.
 
As an associate director of investment strategy, April brings a sharp, cross-channel perspective to every plan – balancing data, relationships, and market insight to drive results.

We are proud to share that TRG’s Investment Strategy co-lead Marc Hartwell served as a judge at Texas A&M University’s Marketing Strategy Senior Showcase on April 24.

The showcase represents the pinnacle of a semester-long strategic effort by Mays Business School senior marketing students in which projects are evaluated on Marketing Strategy Quality, Presentation Skills, Visual & Promotional Materials, and Q&A Performance. Twenty-four student teams competed for three departmental scholarships – a terrific way to cap the undergraduate experience.

TRG is committed to developing the next generation of marketing and advertising talent, and it starts with bridging academia to industry. While TRG gets to connect with standout talent and identify potential candidates, students get to hone their craft and network with industry professionals.

Congrats to all who participated and to the top three teams!

We had the pleasure of hosting an incredible group on Wednesday afternoon from the Gene Burton College & Career Academy - and what a standout group they were.
These rising stars joined us for a conversation around agency life and the ever-evolving world of marketing, with a strong interest in brand management, analytics & data, and public relations. Their curiosity and perspective made for a truly engaging discussion.
What stood out most? The quality of their questions. Thoughtful, insightful, and challenging in the best way- sparking great conversations and leaving even some of our best, Anna Royal, Rahul Sankuratri, Meghan McPartland, Amanda Fowler and Nicole Phommanorat  both intrigued and inspired.
The future of our industry is in good hands.
