Burrell puts ‘multi-ethnic urban males’ under the spotlight
Threshold Nation will offer market research, engagement marketing, advertising, creative support and account planning services to companies looking to market their brands to multi-ethnic men between the ages of 18 and 34.
Among the industries being targeted are the clothing, electronics, spirits and grooming markets.

Burrell is known as an award-winning expert in understanding the African-American urban consumer, and Threshold Nation will take us to the next level with an invigorating philosophy and new thinking about how the advertising industry views this consumer.”
