I'm a curious, creative, Southern boy working in Anderson, SC. My corner of the internet is brought to life thanks to friendly cowboys at Eleven2 Hosting. If you're new here, you might be interested in the RSS Feed or Archives. You can say hello via .
BBDO CEO Andrew Robertson talking about ad agencies and the web sounds suspiciously like the leader of the “Most Awarded Agency Network in the World” being fascinated by what 15 year olds take for granted.
I think it’s great for agencies to start recognizing that new talent may have more knowledge than existing employees. But if I was a potential client with millions of dollars for ad buys, I’d be more than a little concerned with a strategy that essentially says “the techies can make it happen.” Especially when the “it” portion of that statement is a complete unknown to the agency.
And let’s not forget the between-the-lines meaning of “the techies can make it happen”: “We don’t know how to make it happen.”
I like how they’re “rocketing into the digital age” deep into the second decade of the Internet.
