I’m in a love-hate relationship with the industry. And I was in the “hate” phase right before the Creative LIAisons.
After? I realised the cynic in me was thinking about our work the wrong way.
Yes, sometimes people won’t see your TV ad. Some will hate your Billboard. But every “little” thing we do is all part of a journey to, when the time comes, create something bigger that will stop people in their tracks and make a real difference.
