BusinessWeek mentions this company briefly at http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/content/10_50/b4207086663830.htm - a piece on placement of undisclosed advertising in music videos. ("I get calls on country, rock 'n' roll—today it's across the board, in every genre of music," says Brooke Wilson, head of music entertainment at The Marketing Arm, an agency that deals in endorsements. This year she got State Farm's logo into a video by rock band OK Go. "It's really started happening in the past 5 to 7 years. It comes down to the labels not having enough money and needing other avenues to promote themselves." ) That article is primarily about a competitor, The Kluger Agency, whose article here is also a mess of WP:COI self-promotion, but might be worth a mention if this unsourced mess of a page is salvageable. 66.102.83.61 (talk) 09:53, 28 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

On second thought, I'm tagging this {{advertisement}}... it's not only poorly-sourced (and this since 2007), but looks more like a company's "About Us" page than an encyclopaedia article. The only way to fix this might be to try to find WP:RS and start over so that this isn't a vendor's description of themselves. 66.102.83.61 (talk) 09:58, 28 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
