I’m working on a utopian pitch a the moment. Clear point of difference, client that wants a famous brand. He loves communication that’s interesting enough to get passed on. One of those projects you dream of as planner. Or is it?
It’s easy to throw your opinions around on blogs and things, with wonderful theories that look great on paper. It’s another to actually do it yourself. There’s usually the comfort of the client ‘not getting it’, but what happens when you’ve got someone who just says ‘stick your neck out and be brilliant’? What happens when there’s no account person putting brakes on? We’ve got Kirsten; straight bat, will support you to the hilt.
Am I nervous? Of course. But being a bit afraid means you won’t stop trying. I’m going to be working with Stu which is a big plus. We’ll talk a lot, throw things around, fall out, argue and, in the the end enjoy every second of it. I like presenting stuff with him, he balances my faults. I tend to dance around and get over excited,while he’s got this horse whisperer thing going. Cool as a cucumber.
