"You don't need to live in big cities to do global-scale advertising and campaigns. The success of Maitri is evidence that Kerala has an abundance of resources for it. Our ability to capture the trust of international companies is an example of it."- Jayakumar, Maitri's COO said.
"The space and trust our advertisers provide us are what motivates us to think differently. Our energy comes from their courage to embrace innovation. A name worth mentioning here is Shri. M.V. Shreyams Kumar, Managing Director, Mathrubhumi. His support, when we pitched the concept of 'anthology advertising' as part of the centenary celebration of Mathrubhumi, is one example. Maitri has been associated with Mathrubhumi's for more than twenty years." - Venugopal Ramachandran Nair, Maitri's Director of Ideation said.
"The biggest asset of our creative team is the youth who think differently. Behind Maitri's successful campaigns are a group of hardworking young people. They are the real strength of the seniors leading Maitri.' - said Francis Thomas, Group Creative Director, Maitri.
"In earlier times, network agencies used to come to Kerala and bag brands. Today the situation has changed. Now international clients are coming forward realizing the power of regional agencies. This has opened the door for the creative geniuses of Kerala to prepare world-class campaigns.' - Raju Menon, Director - Operations, Maitri said. Raju Menon is also the state president of the Kerala Advertising Agencies Association.
