The Ad5 story.

It all started with late night bourbons at an ad agency convention in Palm Springs.

Mississippi advertising guru Philip Shirley struck up a conversation with Tom Sullivan, CEO of Princeton Partners in Princeton, New Jersey. Shared philosophies on advertising soon led to a friendship based on mutual respect and a healthy admiration for each other’s work. 

Fast forward roughly 30 years.  

An unexpected opportunity to turn a friendship into a partnership arose. The two friends, along with partners Kevin Kuchinksi, Jeff Russell and Lauren Mozingo, seized the opportunity and Ad5 was born.

As part of the Princeton Partners Group, Ad5 offers major market capabilities delivered by a nimble, responsive team that understands the nuances of marketing to audiences in the Southeast. Most members of the Ad5 team worked together for more than 25 years.
