MEGHAN LYNCH OF SIX POINT CREATIVE and

how to deliver that message? How their work together is the sync up of
finding your best positioning and how that gets communicated; and how
the benefits of their aligning are a bonus, and makes it look like you’re
working with a much larger firm (the good part of that).
