THE Leith Agency has been voted Scotland's top advertising agency in a
three-tiered survey commissioned by Scotmedia Magazine and conducted by
Price Waterhouse and System Three Scotland.
The survey covered financial performance plus client and peer
perception polls.
Mr Gordon Young, editor of Scotmedia, described the Leith as a truly
remarkable business and worthy winners of the title of Scottish
Advertising Agency of the Year. With billings of over #26m, the
Edinburgh agency is also Scotland's biggest-ever advertising agency.
John Denholm, managing director of the winning agency, said: ''I
believe there has never been a better time for Scottish agencies to
expand their businesses throughout the UK. Modesty is an attribute that
perhaps we in Scotland have too much of. I think it's time we recognised
that we are better than we think we are.''
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
