In this short celebrating International Women’s Day, Patricia Williams shares her story about becoming a McDonald’s owner-operator 30 years ago. She quit her job and took everything she had to buy her first restaurant. Fast forward to today and now she and her daughters Kerri and Nicole own 18 McDonald’s restaurants.
To commemorate International Women’s Day, at Patricia Williams’ first McDonald’s in Lynwood, Calif., every “M” has been flipped to a “W,” including the iconic Golden Arches McDonald’s sign.
Elle Ginter of Sanctuary Content directed this McDonald’s hero film for agency We Are Limited.

FactSet, a global financial digital platform and enterprise solutions provider, has partnered with Chicago-based creative agency VSA Partners to unveil a second round of spots in its “Not Just the Facts” campaign. The campaign originally launched back in April.
The campaign was built on a core strategic insight: While quality data is critical for financial professionals, facts in isolation provide little value. FactSet’s personalization, data connectivity, open and flexible technology, and dedicated service and support provide the context necessary for the investment community to turn facts into valuable insights--and make the most of them.
