}}Wunderman is a global digital agency with 200 offices in 70 markets. Headquartered in New York City, Wunderman is part of Young & Rubicam Brands and a member of international advertising group WPP Group ({{NASDAQ|WPPGY}}).[3] On November 26, 2018, it announced it was merging with the world’s oldest ad agency J. Walter Thompson to form Wunderman Thompson.[4][5]

History

In 1958, Lester Wunderman, alongside his brother Irving Wunderman, and colleagues Ed Ricotta and Harry Kline, opened Wunderman, Ricotta & Klein (WRK).[6] Founder Lester Wunderman is widely considered,[7] to be the creator of modern-day Direct Marketing—a term he originated in a 1967 speech at MIT.[8]

Wunderman, Ricotta & Kline was acquired by Young & Rubicam in 1973.[9] To reflect the global expansions of the agency alongside then client American Express the agency became Wunderman Worldwide in the 1980s.[10] Since then it has expanded its reach into the interactive, strategic and data-analysis fields.[11]

In 2017 Wunderman and POSSIBLE were merged to form a digital marketing and advertising unit. The POSSIBLE agency brand will remain separate, but will answer into Wunderman. [12]

Notable Work

In 1961, the American Association of Advertising Agencies (4A’s) asked Wunderman Ricotta and Kline to become the first direct-mail agency to join its ranks symbolizing the advertising industries acceptance of direct marketing as discipline.[13]

Among the agency’s early innovations are the Columbia Record Club, the 1-800 toll-free number for businesses (developed for a Toyota campaign, the United States Post Office campaign for Mr. ZIP[14] and the ZIP code, and the magazine subscription card.)[15]

A long-time relationship with American Express eventually led to the first customer rewards program—a breakthrough means of keeping customers loyal to a brand that has since transformed the travel and retail industries as well.[15]

In 2002, Wunderman won the inaugural Cannes Lions Direct Grand Prix.[16] Since then numerous members of Wunderman have served on, or acted as Cannes Lions juries chairmen including Daniel Morel and Eco Moliterno.[17][18]

Growth and Acquisitions

  • Phantasia: In January 2015, Wunderman acquired a majority stake in Phantasia, Peru’s largest and most awarded digital agency.[19]
  • Pierry, Inc.: In September 2017, Wunderman acquired a majority stake in Pierry, Inc. a marketing software integration and solutions company specializing in optimizing campaigns on the Salesforce Marketing Cloud.[20]
  • The Cocktail: In June 2017, Wunderman acquired Spanish digital transformation consultancy, The Cocktail.[21]
  • Pmweb: In January 2017, Wunderman acquired a majority stake in Pmweb Comunicação Ltda., a digital marketing specialist in Brazil.[22]
  • 2Sales: In September 2018, Wunderman acquires Amazon-focused content and campaign agency, 2Sales.[23]
