  • Advertising’s 16 richest people, by income

     

    It’s a list based only on income of public companies, so it may not necessarily be the last word, but the Business Insider’s list of top advertising agency executives, by way of compensation packages makes for interesting reading. The cut-off for the list is USD 2 million of annual compensation, so we would’ve seen more familiar names had we seen a list of the Top 50

     

    This list, as per an introductory note on the BInsider website has “most of the same familiar faces from last year”. And one more thing: the list only looks at ad agencies. Folks at some tech companies or even marketers who are integral part of the ecosystem don’t figure in this list.
