Shell Yeah!

It’s National Pistachio Day and at The Price Group we are going nuts. We’re so excited about it, we’ve been cracking down on work so we can celebrate like we’ve got Saturday nut fever. To honor the Pistachio in all its glory, we have picked some of the nuttiest pistachio commercials that will leave you saying, “SHELL YEAH!” So sit back, pull out a bag of pistachios, and enjoy these videos, because nut-thing goes with advertising more than America’s favorite tiny, green nut.

Meet Our New Interns


It’s springtime and you know what that means; we’ve added some new faces to the group! We have an awesome bunch of interns this semester who are eager to learn about the industry. You met Jeff & Sarah last semester, so let's meet the new Groupies!

Jeff Martinez, Sarah Bohannon, Gwen Wright, Bethany Alexander, and Kristine Jones

Gwen Wright
Hometown: I grew up in a military family so I actually have like 10 hometowns. My favorite hometown has definitely been Hawaii.
Major: Advertising
Plans after graduation: Get a job! I would love to go into copywriting or account services. I’m not really picky about where I live, I just want to enjoy what I do.
What you like about TPG: I love the atmosphere here. Everyone is so helpful and relaxed and it makes for such a great learning environment. I’m excited to have an agency play day so I can spend time getting to know the employees better.
Fun Fact: I’m an expert hula hooper.
Favorite Class: Ad Team, I’ve learned so much and it’s really helped me put myself out there and get involved in the world of advertising.
What are you currently watching on Netflix? I’m currently binge-watching friends while I wait for the new season of OITNB to come on.
Waffles or Pancakes? Pancakes. Everytime.



Bethany Ann Alexander
Hometown: Cowtown (aka Fort Worth, Texas)
Major: Public Relations
Plans after graduation: Get a "big girl job" in Lubbock and pursue my Master's Degree online
What you like about TPG: The atmosphere, employees and clients. For me, those are the most important things in the workplace. 
Fun Fact: I don't know how, but I've never broken a bone 
Favorite Class: Ever? Intimate Relationships my Sophomore year
What are you currently watching on Netflix? Currently, nothing. I typically just stick to my Friends and Sex and the City re-runs, but I've been meaning to watch Making a Murderer after all this Steve Avery-talk
Waffles or Pancakes? That's a tough one. I'm going to have to go with both. My Aunt Jolene's famous homemade waffles and the sweet potato pancakes from the Pancake Pantry in Nashville. Neither are on my diet...



Kristine Jones 
Hometown: Rockwall, Texas 
Major: Advertising 
Plans after graduation: My goal is to go to graduate school to get my MBA, and then eventually work at large ad agency in a big city as an account manager. 
What you like about TPG: Other then the fact that their logo is a dog, I love the fun filled environment. I have met some of the most friendly people, who are encouraging and motivating to each others success. 
Fun Fact: I am obsessed with criminal investigation shows. I am convinced I was actually born to be Olivia Benson from Law & Order.  
Favorite Class: Mass Communication Law & Advertising and Society     
What are you currently watching on Netflix? Criminal Minds, of course.
Waffles or Pancakes? Pancakes, because they have the best gluten free option
