In 2003 James Danella had a vision to create an innovative agency model. One where teamwork was the center and clients are evaluated individually. That vision became reality that year when Media Vision Advertising was formed. For the last 18 years, James and the team at Media Vision Advertising have been developing their core strengths and working together to help their clients to achieve results.
The journey continues as the key players prepare to bring their agency model to new markets. Multiple offices, multiple cities, one collective vision.
What began in New York’s Hudson Valley, has extended to Middle Tennessee. We can’t wait to see what the future brings!
