I allow people to make educated decisions about crap they don't need by convincing them that they've always needed it. Contact: [email protected]

If you’re a dick, people will remember that long after they’ve forgotten about that great campaign you did

@MikeShor LOL

@MikeShor @PieArk @vexatag @NeilNevins Someone in strategy definitely openly wept the first time this turd aired.

@MikeShor @PieArk @vexatag @NeilNevins Just...no

The client just found $250,000. Now work through the holidays making something great so they can kill it remotely from their cabana in the Maldives.

A good account person doesn’t just share the shitty feedback. First they go to the client and question it. Then they share the shitty feedback.

Please dial that copy back enough so the only person it offends is the copywriter who was forced to submit it for approval.

The best ideas in the world have zero chance against layers of hacks and fools

Nothing creates a hornets nest of alphas quite like inter-agency collaboration

[bitter ad guy @bitteradguy]

There’s a 40% change you already lost the pitch due to politics, a 30% chance it’s all for show, and a 20% chance you’ll lose because the account guy will offend the potential client’s mom – again. Now go get ‘em.

@tim_leake Well played sir.

[bitter ad guy @bitteradguy]

Tweet carefully. We're all one post away from complete and catastrophic ruin.

[bitter ad guy @bitteradguy]

If you fail, you can focus on that, worry about what people think, and let it all get to you. Or you can just go and nail something else.

Your mom just called. She still has no clue what you do for a living.

[bitter ad guy @bitteradguy]

It isn't all about the work. It's also about not being a dick.

[bitter ad guy @bitteradguy]

When the client asks for 2 weeks worth of changes in 2 days - feel free to call them at 2 AM to let them know you're working on it

[bitter ad guy @bitteradguy]

You should do some proactive work, because clients always buy what they didn't ask for with the budget they never had

[bitter ad guy @bitteradguy]

The client needs that work that'll run six months from now right now because they said so that's why

[bitter ad guy @bitteradguy]

The best idea wins. But not if the 55 year old unemployed father of three in the focus group feels differently.
