Russian Advertising Agency Heaven Eleven Becomes Newest MAGNET Global Network Member

Online, July 20, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Heaven Eleven is one of six marketing and communication companies that comprise EMCG - Eurasian Marketing Communications Group - the largest, independent agency group in Russia, providing marketing services, brand consulting, event marketing, interactive and media services. While each agency has core competencies, all collaborate as needed for their clients' benefit.

"We believe there's a great deal of difference between local and global thinking," said Alla Rudneva, managing director of Heaven Eleven. "Risk comes from thinking locally and not knowing what the global perspective is. Local expertise that converts to global knowledge - that's what we need from each other. To paraphrase John D. Rockefeller, 'It's better to earn one percent of 100 people's advice and expertise than 100 percent of my own efforts.' That's why we looked for a like-minded community to join, and compare what we do and how we do it. We've found that in MAGNET," Rudneva added.

The growing interdependence of the world's economies underscores the value of organizations such as MAGNET, according to Executive Director Cheri Gmiter. "Many of our members are doing work today that requires expertise and contacts far beyond their locations. A partner such as Heaven Eleven represents tremendous opportunities for our members in Russia and Asia, and for Heaven Eleven to expand its footprint as well. I know our members and their clients will benefit from this new collaboration."
