City of Mounds View 1Vlt.J Page 12 Why Choose Risdall To maximize time and minimize expenses, our organizational structure is totally flat and focused on our clients. For each new account, our senior management builds a team that best serves the client's needs. That team reports to the client for all aspects of the project. This promotes accountability and effectiveness. Everyone on our staff is empowered and responsible. This structure is very flexible and efficient. The year 2008 marks our 36th anniversary as an agency. Since founding Risdall Advertising in 1972, John Risdall has led the company to become the largest independently owned ad agency in Minnesota, with a solid track record of marketing results. In an industry where longevity is often measured in months, we are well into our fourth decade of providing clients with incredible results in building their businesses. John was quick to recognize the potential of the Internet and in 1993 was one of the first agencies with a comprehensive presence on the web. At the same time, John saw the need to develop an interactive arm of the agency that would help clients seize their own online opportunity. Currently, our leadership in the e-commerce area remains unchallenged. Each of the specialty divisions of the agency is lead by experienced industry experts. John and Ted Risdall, Tom Wilson, and other senior staff are frequently asked to present or speak at industry and business events.
