Stacey J. Mokotoff has been promoted to President of Bird Bonette Stauderman, Inc., recognizing her 18 years of dedicated service to the firm. She officially succeeded Al Stauderman, founding president and current BBS Chairman and CEO, on July 1, 2009.

“Stacey’s contributions to the growth of BBS have been immeasurable, especially her extensive experience in commercial television production, connections to that community, and detailed knowledge of each client’s advertising needs and budget,” said Stauderman. “These and many other attributes will help BBS continue to grow as she takes the helm.”

“In today’s volatile market, our clients need an advocate to help them navigate the choppy advertising production waters,” said Mokotoff. “We’re here to help them work within their budgets by guiding them on production basics; establishing guidelines that streamline the process; helping them foster better communication with their ad agencies to ensure higher production values and avoid costly overages; and more. I pledge to continue building on this mission.”

Mokotoff joined BBS in 1991, having perfected her commercial production management skills at New York production houses Jenkins–Covington, Michael Daniel and Gerard Hameline as executive producer or president. There she acquired a reputation as an industry leader and helped found the industry trade group, the Association of Independent Commercial Producers (AICP). She became a vice president of BBS in 1997, was named Senior VP in 2000 and Executive Vice President in 2004
