It is a truth universally acknowledged that the leadership quality most prized post-pandemic is empathy; in this and with countless other strengths at her disposal, CEO Michele Erskine has Out-Edge-d the competition to become 2024's Merit Award Winner! Michele began her starry career at a little outfit in Yorkville known as Media Buying Services in the midst of 1987's ugly recession. Her ideal talents combined a right brain love of math and left brain delight in art, which made media a world she immediately embraced, and one that immediately embraced her right back! In 19 years at Outedge, she's never lost that all-encompassing passion for media and the OOH medium, describing it as a great equalizer which brings its measurable magic to both mom-and-pop and global client alike. Recognized as an innovative, creative, versatile, determined leader who drives teams forward with purpose. It is this future-facing perspective that makes Outedge's Michele Erskine the Ad Club of Toronto's choice for this year's Merit Award. Help us celebrate Michele, at Ad Club's OOH Day to be held at The Carlu in Toronto on October 3rd.

At Ad Club's 2023 Student Day, Quantcast, one of our fantastic returning sponsors, hosted a booth and offered a prize for four students to attend a job shadowing and mentorship program. The four prize-winning students just participated in a two-day program in which they learned a great deal about working in the ad industry.   Jill McDonald, one of the Ad Club's favourite volunteers (and the new President of M&K Media) wanted to give a shout-out to Quantcast and their continuing Ad Club/student support. Said Jill, "I'd volunteered to be a judge for the Dragons' Den portion of the Quantcast day during which students presented a case, we judged the two groups, and chose a winner."   Both cases were fabulous; Team Humber and Team Centennial did a great job! I’ve attached a pic here of the students, the Quantcast team, Heidi Giggie and Jill McDonald (aka me)."
