Prior to the joint venture, Goodby, Silverstein and Partners performed marketing in the US, including the "Chevy Runs Deep" campaign; McCann handled Chevrolet ads in China, Latin America, Mexico, Canada and other markets. Commonwealth handled and supervised creative work worldwide out of Detroit for all markets except China, India and Uzbekistan, where GM has joint auto-making ventures. McCann continued to handle ads in China and India, and Uzbekistan will be contracted as needed.<ref>{{cite news |url=http://www.boston.com/business/articles/2012/03/27/gm_to_combine_chevy_advertising_hopes_to_save_2b/ |title=GM to combine Chevy advertising, hopes to save $2B |publisher=Boston.com |date=March 27, 2012 |access-date=March 16, 2013 |first=Tom |last=Krisher |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140512225959/http://www.boston.com/business/articles/2012/03/27/gm_to_combine_chevy_advertising_hopes_to_save_2b/ |archive-date=May 12, 2014 |url-status=live }}</ref> MacLaren McCann continued on as AOR for the entire GM brand in Canada, but the Chevrolet brand will act as a "spoke" to Detroit's creative hub, with content and messaging flowing through Commonwealth, but adapted for the Canadian market.<ref>{{cite web |author=Megan Haynes |url=http://strategyonline.ca/2012/03/27/chevrolet-merges-creative-teams-to-form-global-agency |title=Chevrolet merges creative teams to form global agency |publisher=Strategyonline.ca |date=March 27, 2012 |access-date=March 16, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130208201458/http://strategyonline.ca/2012/03/27/chevrolet-merges-creative-teams-to-form-global-agency/ |archive-date=February 8, 2013 |url-status=dead }}</ref> Performance Marketing Group Incorporated manages Chevrolet Racing's experiential marketing properties for its at-track activation platforms in conjunction with the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, the IZOD IndyCar Series, and the American Le Mans Series with Team Corvette.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.pmgincorporated.com/clients/chevrolet.html |title=Performance Marketing Group - Chevrolet Motor Division |publisher=Pmgincorporated.com |access-date=March 16, 2013 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130411153406/http://www.pmgincorporated.com/clients/chevrolet.html |archive-date=April 11, 2013 }}</ref>
