Welcome to Optimism

A Big Thank You

I just wanted to say a MASSIVE thank you for helping to accommodate young Joseph Kester last week on his work experience. I know its difficult having someone shadow you but it means a lot to the students that come in.

Joe had a great time and was very grateful to everyone who answered all his questions and for making him feel so welcome. He is very jealous that we all get to work somewhere that’s so much fun whilst he has to go to school … Bless him

Joe has sent a lovely card and some sweets. Please could everyone who took Joe under their wing pat some point last week please come and see me for your treat.

true stories

This morning, we were swapping stories here about bad reactions from clients to presentations. Thought I'd share one or two of the stories.

Here's one that happened a little while ago.

Client: "You're making me nervous with these ideas."
Creative Director: "Well, nervous can be a good thing."
Client: "Yes, but this is the bad kind of nervous."

If I get time, later, I'll recount the story of the marketing director who physically attacked me to try to stop me from singing him our ideas for some radio ads. Oh, how we laughed about that one.
