At a Glance

Sports agency filled out its team this year. Absorbed four-man promo shop Andover marketing last August in a no-cash deal; added another 20 or so staffers. Most growth came from new clients: Crowne Plaza, Auto Trader, L’Oreal, Bank of America, Kraft Foods training work. Lost Masterfoods’ sponsorship work, but still doing projects.
