Kirk Drummond, Co-founder & CEO - Drumroll

Do teams that eats pancakes together perform better? Kirk Drummond thinks so. He and his team celebrate their 10th anniversary this year, and throughout those 10 years it has had an average client tenure of over 4 years.  In the advertising industry, that is a long time and a great benchmark of success. 

He attributes this great success to focusing on creating an amazing team. And, along the way on his journey from co-founder to CEO he also learned about:

• The isolation of being a CEO when you need to extract yourself from the teams doing client work.
• The importance of building networking skills, earlier.
