Although Kirkwood was a $9 million performer and produced excellent work, it lacked exposure among high-profile customers, says Winship, principal and chief marketing officer. “We were able to add clients such as Arnold Advertising, Exxon Mobil and Royal Caribbean to put Kirkwood on the national stage.
