A brief history of marketing in Minnesota

Over at MinnPost John Renian has a post in tribute to Pat Fallon (who is about to be inducted in the Advertising Hall of Fame) and other Minnesota marketing greats. If you click over to the story you can read about Fallon, Carmichael Lynch, Campbell-Mithun, and a 1914 booklet printed by the UofM on how to plan an advertising campaign.

(and because it’s International Women’s Day, I have to tell you to make sure to read the comments)

    If you’re interested in MN advertising/marketing history, see adfed100.org , this has an interactive timeline I helped research and develop for the Ad Fed of MN centennial in 2006.
