What Not To Do

I watch these people giving advice on how to win pitches and I'm reminded of most of my agency career (the first two thirds, anyway).

For me, this is like watching a comedy routine. But it's not comedy - it's the norm, and that's why for the first six years of my practice I had sheep on my website. It takes a lot of de-programming to even start to think that maybe there might be a better way.

Baaa-aaa!
