Team One (advertising agency)

Team One, an advertising agency based in Los Angeles, California, is a division of Saatchi & Saatchi. It was founded in 1987 and focuses on luxury products and services.

History
Team One has a staff of more than 400, including offices in Chicago, New York, Atlanta, and Washington, D.C. Originally based in El Segundo, it moved to Jefferson Boulevard in the Silicon Beach technology, entertainment, and media hub of Los Angeles, in 2014. The relocation of its main offices was described in a Los Angeles Business Journal article as part of the establishment of that street as a west coast analogue of Madison Avenue—home to many of the region's top advertising agencies.

The company's clients include Lexus, HSBC Premier, Häagen Dazs, Indian Motocycle Manufacturing Company, and The Ritz Carlton.

As of June 2015, Julie Michael is president of Team One; she has been with the company since 1998.
