"This rebrand has been an exciting transformational process. Removing my name from the company was an intentional decision. Our clients advise that they TRUST our award winning strategies and the most powerful people in the world TRUST us. The new brand name captures the essence of who we were at our core. We are excited about this new journey for our clients," shared Joy Cook, TRUST Communications Chief Executive Officer and Founder in a press release.
