Following a two-month review that included both New York and Los Angeles locations of Shine, Bob Parsons, CEO and Founder of GoDaddy.com remarked, ''We wanted to team up with an agency that understands the Go Daddy mentality and our way of doing business. Shine got us from the word 'go,' and brought bold, fresh new ideas to our brand, which has always been known for being nothing but bold and fresh.''
Initial work from Shine will include new television spots for Super Bowl XLI, including the ''extended uncut Internet-only versions'' for which Go Daddy has gained notoriety in the past few years.
