Grok and its founder



Tod Seisser founded Grok, a marketing and advertising firm with the help of Julie Bauer and Steve Landsberg. This marketing and advertising firm is based in New York. Tod didn’t like the usual bureaucracy and Grok was the result of this dislike. He strongly believed that the client and the team handling the project should be discussing the project. He felt that the higher officials who did not have a direct hand in the project should be kept out. The firm that he started was able to build a network of talented individuals who were ready to assist him whenever needed. These talented individuals came from different fields and had one thing in common. They were among the best in their respective fields. These individuals came from various fields including entertainment and media.
