Risdall Advertising Announces Promotions

Agency promotes nine executives

NEW BRIGHTON, MN - Risdall Advertising Agency today announced the promotions of nine of its account service team members, recognizing its experienced staff and the agency's strong performance in the first half of 2005. Adding 46 new accounts this year alone, the promotions are in response to the agency's rising presence in the Twin Cities' advertising, marketing and public relations communities.

"The promotions reflect the stellar performance the overall agency is demonstrating," said John Risdall, CEO. "It's important to recognize talent, and our account executive staff has certainly produced the high-caliber work expected in a top agency."

The recent account service promotions include: "Many of our senior executives have been with the agency for over ten years," Risdall notes. "The low employee turnover and experienced, familiar teams translate to great results for our clients."

In addition to the promotions of its account staff, RAA also hired a new assistant account executive, Anna Persuitti. Persuitti joins the agency from Northeaster College in Orange City, Iowa where she is currently majoring in business management. Persuitti will be assisting the account staff with daily operations, budget/time management and client services.
