Clever, GLGR, and The Right Now Merge into New Agency Punch Group

The new entity brings together the specialized capabilities of its founding partners, including the Now Studio content division. By collapsing the boundaries between traditional PR, talent procurement, and event production, the group aims to solve the friction often found in managing multiple agency relationships. Founders Shannon Gabor, Tim Gallagher, and Sunny Jenkins stated that the move is a direct response to a fragmented media landscape where standalone agencies struggle to maintain consistent brand voice across all channels.

Operating under one moniker, the group intends to leverage its combined talent pool to handle larger-scale global projects. This integration promises a more agile approach to storytelling, moving from initial concept to final amplification without the administrative overhead of coordinating separate teams. The consolidation marks a strategic shift toward full-service, bespoke partnerships, allowing the agencies to scale their market presence while maintaining the personalized service model that defined their individual reputations.
