“You can't stop running your business and making good decisions just because the economy is not as robust as it was.” — @DrewMcLellan“There's always opportunity if you are wired to look for and take advantage of that opportunity.” — @DrewMcLellan“When a brand goes dark during an economic downturn, they lose market share, they never get back. And a brand who accelerates and amplifies their voice during a downturn gains market share that they never lose.” — @DrewMcLellan“Companies of all sizes want their agencies helping them strategically and they're really looking to them for advice.” — @susanbaier“Agencies have a bird's eye view on what's working not just for you, but for their other clients.” — @DrewMcLellan“I think it's important to remember that agencies and clients are a symbiotic relationship.
