New campaign by Merrill Lynch puts the bull out to pasture, sort of, in favor of higher sentiments
Article Abstract:
Prospects of Merrill Lynch and current clients, too, say that the firm's new ad campaign will be effective, not lofty. The $75 million global campaign created by J. Walter Thompson ad agency will be rolled out gradually over the coming months through radio, television, print and Internet. The theme is 'human achievement' and separating oneself from the online brokerage clutter.
