The Grand Vizier has been keeping under the radar lately, but I got him to return a call by offering a stimulus package. He took the bait. The Vizier reports that Kevin, owner of Type 9, is now down in Florida running the agency there while his wife is handling the LA-end of the business.

But the shocker is that Joel Lawrence who runs Goldstar, has moved to Miami leaving a quasi-manager in place to run affairs in town.

“A lot of people are seeing this as a clear victory for Derek in the agency wars,” says the Vizier.
