Spiller celebrates Chrysler coup at Fallon
Fallon Minneapollis has won the prized Chrysler business out of long-term incumbent BBDO Detroit, the first win for Fallon since the arrival of Australian Darren Spiller to the national ECD job in June. (Spiller has since been joined by his fellow Publicis Mojo team mates Christy Peacock to head of art in August and Leon Wilson to creative group head in November).
Spiller told CB: “We’ve very excited about this win. Not bad for the first five months.”
Fallon has been without a car account since the departure of BMW in 2005, a decade long relationship that culminated in the breakthrough BMW Films branded entertainment campaign which won the the 2002 Cannes Cyber Lions Grand Prix.
The loss of Chrysler means that BBDO Detroit closes its doors at the end of January.

Fallon needed a big shot in the arm, and a huge win like Chrysler will certainly do that for them. Great work Dazza – must be the Aussie contingent over there!
