Flynn Wright

Flynn Wright is an advertising agency with offices in Des Moines, Sioux Falls and Portland. Its method puts research first: the team studies how consumers think and behave, sets a strategy from those findings, and only then moves to creative work. It runs its own media, direct mail and public relations functions in-house.
