Jackson Spalding Adds Five Clients

Expands Roster in Consumer, Financial Services and Not-for-Profit

ATLANTA - (October 2007) Jackson Spalding continues its winning streak with the addition of five new accounts. This brings the firm's total account wins for 2007 to 27.

"We're honored to have the opportunity to work for a variety of new clients," says Bo Spalding, co-founder.

Adding to its consumer client roster, Jackson Spalding will handle six new market launches for Atlanta-based BAGSTER USA, which provides an innovative solution for refuse disposal. The BAGSTERTM bag is a convenient and affordable replacement to the traditional steel dumpster.

Jackson Spalding also will handle media relations for Touchstone National Bank, a de novo, full-service bank based in Duluth, Georgia. In addition to Duluth, banking offices will open in Norcross and Doraville in the next few months.

The firm has new business from not-for-profits, too. The Boys and Girls Club of Metro Atlanta hired Jackson Spalding's JS Creative to create its annual report. Justice Served, a consulting alliance of court management and justice experts, hired Jackson Spalding for speech-writing and podium booking. Additionally, Jackson Spalding has signed on to promote the 16th annual MAX Awards, presented by Georgia State University's J. Mack Robinson College of Business Department of Marketing and the Atlanta Business Chronicle.

"We are thrilled about this array of diverse clients," said Glen Jackson, co-founder. "We're positioned to end 2007 on a very high note."
