Job Description
Responsibilities
*Open to LA or NY
At Rogers & Cowan PMK we believe that everything we see or do can become entertainment. Something to experience, bring together and share. It is where these things collide that excites us. It's where they meet up that marketing is at its most successful.
In the olden days, consumers expected to have things presented to them. It was a simple arrangement. Our job – any agency's job – was to make a snazzy commercial and some eye-catching posters. A generalization, but the end goal was for consumers to see them and buy into the brand.
Now though, consumers have changed. Well, we all have. People are much savvier, much more aware. Not content with passive interaction (and who can blame us?). If we see something, we want to learn about it, play with it, view it from more than one place. At R&CPMK, we see these interactions as opportunities. A chance to add meaning, to build, or enhance a relationship. After all, if you want someone to remember you or like you, it's not enough just to be in the same room as them. You have to be part of the action, strike up a conversation, and offer them something of value.
For us, that's something to hang on to and be proud of. Something worth getting right. It's also something that everyone in our global network is dedicated to. The last 11 years have taught us that for brands both great and small (and we've worked with a lot), entertainment and passion are the best way to reach consumers and turn them into fans.
