Patricia
Barrio-Takacs is a Senior Media Planner/Buyer with a track
record of getting more for her clients. An expert in developing highly-targeted
media strategies, she negotiates
ferociously
for
added
value.
Once the schedule has been defined, Patricia will not approve media contracts
without very significant extra promotional and cross-promotional concessions
from the stations in support of the campaign. These added-value programs can
include remote broadcasting, contests, co-marketing opportunities, public
relations opportunities, news bumpers and more. The net result is that
every
media
dollar
works
twice
as
hard,
in a targeted and aggressive manner. With over 20 years experience as a media
specialist, Patricia has been responsible for a wide variety of media accounts,
representing many millions of dollars in purchasing power. Equally comfortable
planning and negotiating television, radio, print or outdoor, she has served
as Buying Group Manager and Associate Media Director in Canada's leading agencies.
