  We founded the company in 1990 and it was the first innovative media agency in its markets. Every campaign was measured by our unique daily consumertracking system. That made the clients ROI growing rapidly. Because of the success we could both recommend our clients to increase or decrease their investments dependent on their results. We therefor charged retainers instead of % commission to be able to recommend budget cuts without losing our revenues. The Swedish subsidiary was sold to the CEO Niclas Fröberg and Mindshare. The Norwegian subsidiary was merged with Mediacom AS. Both became leading in each market. Today both agency’s are hold by WPP.
