Burns Marketing Acquires Denver-Based Ripcord

Burns Marketing, northern Colorado’s largest marketing agency, announces it has acquired the business of Denver’s Taxi District agency ripcord. The new, unified firm will officially begin operations today, August 1, 2012.

The deal results in Burns having a Denver location and unites an impressive core team of seasoned marketing experts and compatible capabilities. Burns will add ripcord’s employees to its growing staff, which now includes 35 account managers, strategists, copywriters, art directors, designers and developers.

Mike Burns, president and CEO of Burns Marketing, says the merger improves the Burns presence in Denver — allowing more agile, proactive, and responsive services for their clients across the metro area.
