marketers, agency execs and consultants

(actually working together).

The Actionists was founded by Pio Schunker and Lee Roth on the belief that today’s marketing problems weren’t being served well by yesterday’s tactics.

Pio and Lee have been weaving in and out of each other’s lives for the last 20 years–first meeting agency side at Ogilvy & Mather and then working closely at The Coca-Cola Company where Pio was the Senior Vice President of Integrated Marketing for the entire Coca-Cola Companies’ portfolio and Lee ran Integrated Marketing for vitaminwater, Powerade and smartwater businesses.

Unbeknownst to either of them, it is their formative experience at Coca-Cola of how to build a brand that also builds the business that would start to lay the foundation for The Actionists.
