Shannon Perryman

DIRECTOR OF CREATIVE SERVICES

If you’ve ever wondered what trying to keep a department-full of highly creative individuals on-point and on-task is like, Shannon’s not the guy to ask. As one of ADsmith’s three Vice Presidents and the head honcho of the Creative Department, Shannon makes sure ADsmith’s creative product remains consistently on target for each client’s message, identity, and quality. He works directly with clients and account supervisors through each step of creating a visual message, combining brand visibility with unique, artistic creativity to craft show-stopping pieces.

Shannon received his BA in Fine Arts from Drury University. Prior to joining ADsmith, he spent more than twenty-five years working for mid-sized area agencies. His work over this period included creative materials for small owner-operator restaurants to multinational corporations.

Shannon’s drive is to help clients get their message noticed by the public, from nonprofits improving life for people in need to businesses helping customers find the best solution. Ensuring that clients’ messages are delivered succinctly, creatively, and memorably is a fulfilling challenge that Shannon strives to meet with every project.
