We understand that every advertiser has its own unique circumstances and challenges
Most definitions of “best practice” in the world of advertising, marketing and marketing procurement have become so specific that they fail to accommodate the specific needs of brands and their particular business problems. Why would a
market leader in hair care use the same “best practices” as challenger brand in financial services? But they very often do.

The HTBAG Co’s proprietary three-way strategic framework is unique in the market.
