Stealing staff and hoarding awards

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE x 4 TOO LAZY TO WRITE LOTS OF SEPARATE PRESS RELEASES.
Resn begs you to read this self gratifying release about us stealing staff and hoarding awards.
Sweeping changes at Resn
Resn has caused ripples within the fragile New Zealand advertising industry snatching DDB Head of Cleaning, Sue Paclean and Clemenger BBDO’s Group Trophy Polisher, Al Bowgrese.
Managing Director Rikki Campbell says, “These appointments bring new dimensions of hygiene and party recovery capability to the talent we already have. This just further cements our position in Australasia as a leader in this area of advertising. We’re delighted to have Sue and Al join our amazing team.”
“I’ve wanted to work with Sue for a long time now. She’s worked on some amazing accounts including Auckland’s Greenlane Hospital, Britomart and Auckland City Council Chambers.” comments Resn’ CD, Steve Le Marquand.

A couple of FWAs to crack the top off the year.
Resn has ripped two screaming awards from the bloodied hands of some of the World’s top online marketers competing for the Favourite Website Award Site of the Day. The first, they snatched on Boxing Day while people lay quietly in their beds nursing their egg-nog hangovers. Bored with winning just one FWA, Resn decided two was far more entertaining to talk about so decided to win another only two weeks later.

Pixel Awards
Resn was waving the New Zealand flag with its rippling muscle-bound warrior arms and holding two gleaming awards wedged between clenched thighs at the Pixel Awards. The Government even got some non-profit loving with the awesome Health Sponsorship Council taking out the Non-Profit category. Droga5 New York’s collaboration with Resn saw the duo racing Puma Africa across the line for a first place finish and a serious toe-touching post-race warm down routine in the Sports category. Resn even managed to beat itself with its Sports category finalist entry of Toyota Racing’s Sponsafier with Saatchi LA.
