C-Level Changes at Rosetta
Posted in: UncategorizedToday we can confirm three C-level departures at Publicis shop Rosetta.
COO Mark Taylor will soon leave his position, while CFO Rich DeMilt and partner Kristy Croft, who ran the POEM (search and media) practice, are no longer with the agency.
Taylor’s last day will come later this month. DeMilt, who joined Rosetta in 2008 after serving as worldwide controller at Ogilvy & Mather, left several weeks ago; the agency appointed Ariel Marciano to replace him as Global Chief Financial Officer in early May.
These moves follow a series of layoffs in April that affected “less than 5%” of the agency’s North American staff; over the past nine months Rosetta has also seen the arrival of new CCO Lars Bastholm and the departure of ECD Dave McClain.

Alright Already, Here’s Your Mark Taylor Update
Posted in: Uncategorized
Listen folks, we love you, but we can’t be everything to everyone, whether it concerns the likes of Mark Taylor, the man who had three stints at Crispin Porter + Bogusky (yes, three) and a brief spell at GSD&M, who parted ways with the MDC-owned agency last summer. In case you didn’t read the post from AdAge, which by the way still hilariously lives in some Mad Men era and/or ranks themselves up with the New York Times –”my exclusive or the highway”–but is even more anachronistic (just fucking be civil, not political), Taylor has now joined up with Energy BBDO as its new chief creative officer.
Anyhow, I digress. Here is a statement from Energy president/CEO, Tonise Paul, who says, “Mark is an amazing talent and we couldn’t be more delighted to welcome him to our Energy BBDO family. When you look at Mark’s work, you will see a history of marketing innovation. With the challenge of increasingly parity products and the opportunity afforded by the constant emergence of new technologies, this is how brands today win. Mark’s work is a collection of big, original ideas that have solved big business challenges. You will recognize it because it was often the first time you saw it done, starting with Subservient Chicken. On top of his track record of great work, Mark is a wonderful guy.”
Taylor will assume his new role on April 7 but until then, Chicago-based Energy BBDO will continue to be led by a group of senior creative directors.

Mark Taylor Leaves CP+B…Again
Posted in: UncategorizedWe have received confirmation that Mark Taylor, who’s spent nearly four years at Crispin Porter + Bogusky and served as VP/executive creative director, has parted ways with the agency. During his third (!) stint at CP+B (he worked as an art director and ACD in past ones), Taylor led creative on a variety of efforts for various clients ranging from Applebee’s to Arby’s. Last year, he picked up a Grand Prix in the Promo & Activation category at Cannes for the AmEx “Small Business Saturday” effort.
From what we’re hearing on the Spy line, Taylor has left CP+B start up his own shop. Along with his multiple tours of duty at the MDC-owned, Boulder-based agency, the creative exec has also worked as an ECD and CD at GSD&M and Fallon, respectively.
