Crispin Porter + Bogusky company history timeline

1965

CPB was formed in 1965 by Samuel D. Crispin, who named his company Crispin Advertising and based it in Florida.

1990

Porter was appointed chairman of the agency in 1990, which made room for Bogusky as the firm's creative director.

2001

In 2001, Nadal acquired a 40 percent stake in the agency and grouped it with his newly formed MDC Partners Inc., a holding company that owned parts of 32 companies involved in advertising, design, communications, and sales promotion.

2003

In 2003, the eccentric founder of Virgin Atlantic Airways, Richard Branson, found a perfect marketing partner in the eccentric CPB. Bogusky oversaw the development of a "Go Jet Set, Go" campaign for the airline, creating new ways to titillate the public.

2006

The campaign featured caricatures of a German dominatrix and engineer, but, oddly for CPB, the most prominent aspect of the agency's work for Volkswagen was a television commercial that began airing in 2006.

In mid-2006, he took another step into uncharted territory when he announced CPB was developing its own movie, a movie in which the principal characters lived in an apartment above a Burger King restaurant.

2010

But the agency has steadily declined since 2010, struggling from the loss of its founder and early partners, faltering under a parent company that tried to grow it too fast, and most of all, failing to keep up with advertising's shift to a data-based approach.
