How Patrice Robertie | Acorn Advertising helped …

Companies that can’t (or won’t!) talk about what makes them special lose opportunities to make good connections with customers. Showcasing a firm’s approach and philosophy makes it easier to attract clients who will value that approach.

“The fact that others are moving in a certain direction is always proof, at least to me, that a new direction is the only direction.”
