McKinney ranks 9th of 309 agencies for Effies won over this time period. We start with a very simple philosophy. People care more about themselves than they care about brands. And they tend to pick categories before they choose brands. So, for a brand to achieve its full potential, it has to connect with what brings people to the category in the first place. When we create a brand experience that exceeds category expectations, you win. We get there through a rigorous approach that starts with clarity about the real challenge that marketing can address and stays focused on measurement and continuous improvement.
