Creating content that stops the scroll has kept the fast-growing Day One on the move. According to CEO Josh Rosenberg, the pandemic has only sharpened the agency’s focus and required the work to become fresher and more compelling. Keys to 2021 success have been an increasingly diverse, deliberately anti-racist organization; dedicated time for fresh thinking; a new video studio; and the Day One forest.
