BALTIMORE – February 14, 2022 – Warschawski, a fully integrated advertising, digital, PR, branding and marketing communications agency, today released its annual list of the top ten winners and losers in advertising following the Super Bowl. Compiled by CEO, David Warschawski, the highly anticipated annual ranking grades the best and worst ads and provides the foundation for David to provide media commentary on such topics as the newest trends and messages portrayed, ad effectiveness, and the return on investment (ROI) for Super Bowl ads.
A respected branding and advertising expert, David has created a proprietary tool by which to measure the success of each Super Bowl advertisement. For dozens of years, David has been sought out by numerous national and international media outlets ranging from CNBC to PBS and National Public Radio (NPR), to provide expert commentary on Super Bowl ads.
