Creative agency Ugly shuts
Ugly, a creative agency launched by TBWA Sydney’s ex executive creative director Gary McCreadie, Anomaly Amsterdam’s founding partner and CEO Hazelle Klonhammer, and M&C Saatchi’s former head of strategy Ross Berthinussen, has closed its doors after less than two years.
Ugly launched in April last year with M&C Saatchi as a financial backer. Enquiries sent to Ugly are now being directed to M&C Saatchi Group’s CEO Jaimes Legget.

Who came first with this piece of news, CB or mUmbrella?
Hi Superman,
You can see clearly by the time stamps that Campaign Brief posted this story by 12:15pm, and ours was posted at 1:34pm.
In no way does this story imply we got it first or it is in any way exclusive.
If The Daily Telegraph got the drop on ScoMo resigning, I would still expect The SMH to look into it and report it though – so I don’t really see the issue here.
I hope things are well at The Daily Planet,

Wow, who cares? We’re talking about a start-up agency that won 1.5 clients in a year then went bust. Hardly the biggest story of the year.
Well you cared enough to comment.
Nothing wrong with having a go and starting something – some succeed, some fail, most fail first and then succeed.
