Shropshire to head Dentsu's new Australia office

Dentsu Canada President and CEO Bob Shropshire has been tapped to oversee the global advertising giant's newest office in Sydney, Australia. The agency will launch with Toyota Australia as its client. Meetings with Australian clients began last year but plans for the new office were accelerated when it landed the Toyota Yaris business from Droga5.

Hancock joined Dentsu Canada in 2004 and was the agency's Vice-President, Group Account Director on Toyota and Lexus.

Sleeman Launches Notoriously Good Campaign

From pirates to Al Capone, Sleeman's notoriously good reputation continues to grow with the launch of a multi-media campaign that brings the true stories behind the clear bottle to life.

Already a bestseller in Japan, The Dentsu Way is now available to the western world. In the book, Chief Creative officer Kotaro Sugiyama and Executive Officer of Dentsu Inc., Tim Andree, unveil the key strategies behind the company's innovative thinking and unprecedented success.

For over a century, Dentsu's progressive blend of culture and philosophy has yielded a host of visionary ideas and award-winning campaigns. The key ingredient to Dentsu's unstoppable growth is a proprietary approach to communications aptly referred to as "Cross Switch." It is an original term coined by Dentsu to express the concept of "flipping a switch in the consumer's mind." Born from the accurate assumption that the modern consumer no longer responds to the traditional methods of advertising, Cross Switch employs a variety of unique techniques across media types. The objective is to seamlessly sway and direct the consumer toward new levels of engagement with a brand's products or offerings.
