IPM proves free lunches do exist

Adopting our best Smashie and Nicey voices, we want to tell you about some lovely people in the world of posters – they won’t want to talk about it themselves.

Poster buying specialist IPM has produced a piece of software designed to help agencies and advertisers cost the production of materials for poster campaigns. What’s charitable about that I hear you say?
