My Advertising Life

Best of thisadvertisinglife.tumblr.com

When we finish a big pitch and go out to celebrate.

When we deliver the kind of creative the client wasn’t expecting.

The creative who just switched to digital after doing traditional for years.

When a project I thought was dead suddenly reemerges.

When I step into the wrong meeting.

When the client wants to make a seemingly small revision that changes the whole project.

When the client finally approves work that’s a shadow of its former self after 20 rounds of revisions.

When a major change is requested but it still turns out really good.

When the presentation goes well but there’s a typo at the end.
