AMIN Member Love | Notes from Our Allies
February 12, 2026
To celebrate the month of love, we look to our AMIN allies, who deserve so many accolades! From leading the way for industry growth, to reaching across the globe and collaborating with some of the world’s best marketing experts.
Our AMIN members inspire us everyday and this month, we’re asking them to give a shoutout to other members who deserve some love. Check it out below!
While I have already felt the impact of many AMIN members over the last 3 years, I wanted to give a shoutout to Robert Heldt at AIM B2B. I admire the way he runs his agency, and the business he has built. He has also gone out of the way to build some mutual business opportunities, and it has been a pleasure to work with him on the AMIN APAC Board.
– Mike Golden, Brandigo China
As an HR professional in this industry, I love that we have our own HR peer group through the AMIN network. We meet monthly online and once a year in person to share ideas, ask questions, and help one another grow. This group of amazing HR professionals is kind, supportive, and always willing to partner with me—whether I have a question, a challenge, or just need to talk.
– Nick Knuffman-Brewer, Simantel
I would like to do two shoutouts.
First – from a media perspective, I would like to really thank Ken Chitwood.
Negotiations with media/data platforms across a complex entity as AMIN is simply amazing. Ken thinks through negotiation strategies and positioning like a master. He is worth every penny!
Second – Brett Parker at Stoneward
Brett has been a fantastic resource to bounce ideas and hit up for quick thoughts around specific media topics, strategies, placements and more. He is always quick to respond and treats the AMIN group with high respect. His insights have helped more than a couple times.
– Walt McRoberts, Mahk Advertising
Speaking of engagement, the AMIN APAC leadership would like to give a special shoutout to Doy Roque and Enya Reyes from M2.0 Communications in the Philippines. We truly appreciate their volunteerism and for stepping in so quickly to create outstanding visuals and marketing materials for our APAC Retreat in Bali.
As is often the case in agency life, client work comes first, which makes it especially rewarding to work with true professionals who invest their time, energy, and passion in our network’s success. Thank you, Doy and Enya, for setting such a great example—we’re grateful to have you as part of AMIN APAC.
– Robert Heldt, AIM B2B
JJ and Ali from Signal Theory in Kansas City are the perfect duo—where bold creativity meets rock-solid, trust-driven leadership. Smart, funny, and seriously effective.
Together with BG Co-Creative Strategy, we pitched for a global client: Michelin.
They won. We won.
Since then, we’ve been moving forward with humility—hand in hand with many others—on this iconic brand, a powerful symbol of connection to the ground and to movement itself.
That’s the DNA of our network: a shared passion for communication, fueled by collaboration and belief.
– Sylvain Gaeng, BG Co-Creative Strategy
I have a shout out to Giulio and the inTarget team – involving us in an amazing client opportunity with an awesome brief and kick off meeting. Can’t wait to pitch together.
– Andy Smith, StrategiQ
Our Shout Out goes out to Comm Comm. Kristi Anderson and Ilia Jones from AMIN, Jack Spaulding from Planit Agency and Blake Lofgren from CVR. For the team at Stratitude, working with you on the monthly AMIN comms is a privilege and a pleasure.
– Natalie Davies, Stratitude
Big shout-out to GMA Creative Firm.
Working together on one of our latest campaigns, I really appreciated the team’s speed and willingness to help. On top of that, I could always count on Pedro: personally involved and happy to share his perspective whenever it was needed.
– Wojciech Kocik, Neon Shake
