When I wasn’t busy… Getting lost at Grand Central Station,
Eating two dollar pizza slices,
Tweeting at the One Show,
Staying out until 4am,
Pretending to be in Center Stage,
Cheering for the Yankees,
Shopping for useless souvenirs,
Meeting Fabio,
Remembering 9/11,
Or karaoke-ing in Korea town…
I was…
CHATTING with some of the most inspirational people in the advertising industry,
LEARNING about agency culture,
SEEING the process and hard work that went into some of my favorite campaigns,
And overall,
TRYING to vacuum up every last piece of advice they spilled in front of me.

DDB IRRATIONALITY + SOCIAL CREATIVITY
CREATE ideas that can
change people’s
behavior
FEEL DO THINK [NOT] THINK DO FEEL
Appeal on an emotional, not just rational level
Use PEOPLE as
media
Gain social CAPITAL
We have TRUTHS about us that
simply can’t change
Humans are irrational beings,
and we make irrational
decisions and try to
post-rationalize them

BIG SPACESHIP Develop Relationships of TRUST + TRANSPARENCY don’t be an ASSHOLE
Great work doesn’t come
from a locked down
process
Professionalism is the
sanding down of
personality.
LET SHIT S P

L
L out of your brain…
HAVE INTERESTS AND A STORY OUTSIDE OF ADVERTISING
BE P R O F E S S I O N A L.
[there’s a difference]

BE PASSIONATE + WILLING TO LEARN: love your team
make it believable
explain what you did
make it relatable
15 minutes early=
ON TIME
QUESTION creative work
When you start off, NO
JOB is beneath you
Understand the
client’s fear. Point
out their problems,
but you better
have a solution.
THE ASSHOLE ISSUE: there are a variety of assholes.
non-collaborative.
entitled: can’t take criticism.
DON’T be one.

CREATE WORK THAT
AFFECTS CULTURE
We have to reinvent ourselves
constantly to stay relevant
This stuff is all just
managed chaos
Open UP and take feedback
You’re stupid if you
ignore an idea
simply because of
WHERE it came
from.
God forbid the
account people may
have an idea too.

controlled

These people not only showed us why we should want their jobs, but through talking to us, I can only hope that we also helped them
remember why they love what they do.
This is a beautiful industry,
where generosity goes a long way.
When I’m in their shoes, I will always remember what these wonderful people have given us.
