Article Abstract:
A new trend in marketing has corporations consolidating their advertising accounts into one or a few advertising agencies.

One agency can provide consistency in advertising, and clear image for the corporation. The trend is more advantageous for the larger and multinational advertising agencies. Consolidation can provide cost savings.
