Media Planner

Company Description

On the day Fallon opened its doors without a single client, it did so under the headline, "A new advertising agency for companies that would rather outsmart the competition than outspend them." More than 40 years later, and this mantra is unwavering. We are a creatively-led agency who pinned our public reputation on our commitment to smarts. Smart brands create something of value in the world. Smart brands add to peoples' lives and to culture; they help build ideas in the world, and they leave something behind. See fallon.com for more information and examples of our work.

Fallon strives to ensure diverse perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences are represented-and that everyone feels seen, heard, and has a sense of belonging. Whether that be through recruiting and retaining diverse talent, creating a dialogue around systemic issues and obstacles for diverse individuals, or ensuring our work reflects diverse perspectives, our efforts focus on enacting change through acknowledgment, education, accountability, action, and celebration.
