DRIVEN SHIFTS GEARS - MOVES TO FASHIONABLE FERNDALE
Boutique ad agency DRIVEN has moved from its previous location of over two years at 310 Washington in Royal Oak, Michigan to a new location at 320 Nine Mile in Ferndale, Michigan.
“It’s a great feeling to be able to stay on the right track and keep moving forward during these harsh economic times,” says Kevin Woods, Principal and Chief Operating Officer. “Survive is the new thrive, and we’re excited that we’ll be able to continue to grow in Fashionable Ferndale.”
The new location, a former warehouse that had not been used for many years, has been renovated and built out to have a SOHO loft, industrial feel with a lot of open space. “We wanted to create an atmosphere that’s open and relaxed but still gives a nod to our Detroit industrial roots,” says Brian Cusac, one of DRIVEN’s four Principals and Chief Creative Officer.
DRIVEN, which was started by four young Detroit ad agency veterans over four years ago, is full-service agency with 10 full-time staffers and a rotating stable of seasoned creative professionals.
“Our mission is always about producing great creative product and effective solutions for our clients, but it’s always nice to have a killer space to do it in,” says John Cymbal, one of the four DRIVEN Principals. “As the client list continues to grow and the shop gains recognition for its work, we’ll have a great place to grow in.”
DRIVEN’s current client list is made up of many Michigan based companies including Wayne State University, Founders Brewing, United Road, Westborn Markets, Berger Chevrolet and several out of state companies such as Mike Bass Ford in Ohio.
“We just keep it simple, do smart work, and try to have fun,” says Sam Chiodo, Principal and Chief Marketing Officer for DRIVEN. “We work hard and our clients can see the results.”
DRIVEN is a small “think-tank” made up of professional renegades and rebels from the world of “big” advertising. They bring the experience of working on some of the largest brands in the world to the table for each client. Their solid relationships within the industry allow them to draw from the best in ideation and includes award-winning writers and art directors, as well as, artists, musicians, strategic thinkers, media planners, and dreamers, all of whom are DRIVEN to deliver cutting edge solutions for select clients.
