  There's a current of conversation buzzing - conversations that take place between people and brands. We listen to these conversations online, in homes, and on the streets. We monitor what is being said about a brand, how loud the conversation is, where it is taking place, who is talking, who is listening, who is promoting the brand, who is detracting from it, and how influential these people are. Then we create conversation. We shape it. We change it. We build brand advocates and product endorsers. It's the art of conversation - and it's what we do best. Show less
