A long time ago, before the Dead Sea was even sick (da dum. tssshhh) I quit the job I was working in insurance PR and got a gig with a way cooler company called Tribeca PR doing tech-spin.
I had about 2 weeks to kill between jobs so the crazy kids at Tribeca invited me to a media launch they were handling for the HTC Touch.
I walked into the launch and there was this big lug of a man who greeted me with a hearty handshake and was a loud, sweary, goofy kinda guy who I had no idea would one day start a digital agency as amazing as the one I’m about to show you.
Of course, the big lug I’m referring to is Mike Sharman (THE MAEN!) who founded Retroviral on a collaborative basis with total badasses like Mel Attree, who is Mike’s partner in crime on a lot of projects and definitely the brains of the operation.
As the video I’m about to show you illustrates, Retroviral has come a LONG way for a company that only celebrates its second birthday this year and now has an official “staff compliment†that includes the mastermind behind one of a small handful of blogs I actually read, Mr Dan Nash himself.
Check it.
A huge congrats to the Retroviral team. Really looking forward to seeing what you guys come up with in 2012.
In the words of my doff-as-fuck alter ego, KLAP IT CHARNAS!

Introductions dont get to much better than that!
The ad is great! Its fun, interesting and sums them up in 3min, awesome work on their part!
Damn straight. It’s a very powerful piece of communication, these guys will go far.
I give it two years, three at the most and Retroviral is going to be a MASSIVE player.
