Mark Sneider brings perspective unmatched in the industry. Not only has he, like many, worked on both sides of the marketing & advertising fence, he also has his hands deep into the world of agencies and marketers through the two businesses he now operates. One business, RSW/US, represents agencies to help them find new clients. RSW/US has 50 clients throughout the U.S. Through RSW/US, he lives the challenges and successes of agency new business every day. The other business, RSW/AgencySearch, represents marketers looking for better agencies, so he is very current with the ever-changing needs of marketers today. This dual lensed perspective helps his clients in ways unique to both industries.
