History
editKing founded the agency with former Publicis' Hal Riney partner Roger Camp. Most recently, King was the president of Euro RSCG Chicago, the largest advertising agency for the past five years by number of global accounts.[2] Both King and Camp have spent their careers in advertising at various agencies, including Fallon, Wieden + Kennedy, Cliff Freeman & Partners and Leo Burnett. They met at Publicis Groupe's Publicis & Hal Riney in San Francisco, where King was CEO.[3]
Clients
editThe agency was launched with an initial roster of clients that include Old Navy, Yahoo! and Shaklee.[4] Camp+King has positioned itself as creating "Conversation-Swell" for brands.[5] Camp+King recently[when?] helped Old Navy build a “full communications plan using in-store, viral, mobile, social and some of their direct channels," for the Halloween season.[citation needed] They are also working with Shaklee Corp., as well as on a project with Yahoo scheduled for a spring 2011 launch.[6]
