Our Team

 

Charles Crosbie, President

Charles established Clout as the culmination of his twenty years of experience in Toronto’s media industry.

His career started in the television commercial production industry. After studying in Acadia University’s debut Advantage program, Charles worked with Young & Rubicam Advertising.

At Y&R, he led their broadcast studio and went on to become a Producer (helping to create tv and radio commercials, corporate, cinema and interactive projects for clients like Ford, Sears, AT&T and Colgate-Palmolive).

Charles went on to become an executive at Rogers Communications, helping to launch and helm a broadcast and interactive production subsidiary.

After a few years working with some great clients and companies in Canada and the US (such as the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, Washington Ballet and Fuel Industries), Charles established Clout in response to the industry’s new, emerging needs.
