A View From An AdGuy: Yup, 'Everybody Admires The Value of Bright Young Things More Than They Did A Couple of Years Ago'

About A View From An Adguy

I wasn't sure I would ever get into this blogging thing... ever. But the time has come and here is the home of my thoughts, advice, references, tales, passion and feelings on advertising and the life involved within.

When I decided this was to be a "new" method or additional "voice" to my teaching, motivating and inspiring for my students and friends, my first thoughts turned immediately to time.

TIME! Something we all value and never seem to have enough of. That will be my guide. TIME. I will use mine wisely and respect yours, making the post relevant and timely.

So welcome. Spend some of your valuable time here hopefully to learn, share, be inspired, and maybe even entertained.

Yup, 'Everybody Admires The Value of Bright Young Things More Than They Did A Couple of Years Ago'

Humbled and honored to be part of this story on the future of this crazy advertising business that appeared in The National Post.

I think Scott Goodson puts it best, "I think the biggest challenge in the past was that you had the old creative legends who came into a room and said what they were going to do. Today, great ideas come from everywhere and there is a respect today for those ideas which wasn't there before. I think these days everybody probably admires the value of bright young things more than they did a couple of years ago."

As a mentor to young creative and strategic thinkers at Seneca College Creative Advertising the truth truly is in the engagement with the industry and experiential learning.

Give me a call or connect if you want to be part of this future.
