Butter Side Up
When I first started editing this newsletter, I had a revealing conversation with an industry insider about the relative importance of creatives. Though it was my stance at the time that campaigns really are only as good as their creatives, this old-timer straight out told me I was wrong. “It’s [...] More...
The Way the Cookie Crumbles
Work in the business world long enough and you’ll inevitably begin to collect things: squishy little stress balls emblazoned with one company name or another; more pens than you could use if you struck a deal every day from now until the end of time; magnetic paperclip holders that grasp [...] More...
