  • Communicate: You are the first point of contact for your clients, so you will act as both spokesperson and listener for your teams. You will be expected to welcome both praise and areas of impact that need growth, as we’re all continuously growing to be better, and filter it into your reports through actionable steps. 
  • Prioritize: Set priorities for each client and clearly communicate them to your team. Mentor your team members to learn to set priorities as well.
  • Network:  Attend events and socialize across relevant industries to continue to build the KRUPA client roster by finding & referring exciting, emerging and established brands to the agency.
  • Analyze: Continuously narrow and analyze target markets, instinctually positioning your clients to create a unique consumer product identity and consumer editorial awareness.
