"Ad agencies are losing clients to tiktokers" assumes all we do is product shots.
We also do suffering. Wait until you go through 18 rounds on one social post and have to deliver work on Sunday evening. Or try and write the same line in 150 diff ways only to see em all die

Why would you hire juniors if you don't have the capability to train them? You think their careers are less important? Wtf does it say about your company if you can't train a bright young starter?

Some of these agencies quick to announce diverse hires but the hires leave under a year and that says more than your announcement every could.

Advertising is one big appropriation machine. Every time you draw a line from some epic ad about a specific culture or their trauma..you find white people behind it.
Stop telling other people's stories. Give em the pen.

Almost anybody can come up with a brilliant idea. Bringing your idea to life and putting it out into the world is a different beast. Producers are the real mvps.

Folks like to ride the illusion that there are not enough Black women out here making dope ads and influencing culture/content. But when you focus your attention on 3 or 4 agencies in the entire industry, you miss a lot. cont👇🏿👇🏿

Instead of highlighting work we've all seen. Maybe highlight work from places that don't get coverage? You're emailing folks to submit to your shows but don't have a visibility plan for anyone but your friends.

As a junior or intern creative starting out..anybody telling you not to specialize in either cw or ad is essentially plotting your downfall. It's almost impossible to excel without fundamentals.

This article is heavy bs and
@adage
is trash trash for letting it run. Your writer leaves a lot unsaid and implies boz is flighty without pointing at her accomplishments (or failures) Y'all really just recoil at anything that defers from what's deemed normal.

Do you know how upsetting it is to hear white folks that have lived in America all their life talk about systemic racism like they just found out about it? I've lived in the US for 5 and simple things like walking into a grocery store is an education on profiling.
