Agency Love Letter
GLOW FYI, you’ve been added as a maker of Agency Love Letter on @ProductHunt https://t.co/fpfM6MCd3u h/t @peterlevin đ â Product Hunt (@ProductHunt) February 19, 2019 I saw this post a couple of weeks ago on Twitter and promised myself to write about it because the execution was so unique. A New York City-based agency known as Glow wanted to provide an anonymous way for people to share their feelings about their ad business clients. Therefore, they created a website to allow users to write nice – or not so nice – anonymous letters to their clients and agencies. The site, AgencyLoveLetter.com, allows people to shower their agency and client partners with…
Conspiracy Behind ‘Elevator’ Super Bowl Ad
Every year a week after the Super Bowl there seems to be some controversy with a commercial that turns into an advertising industry conspiracy theory. This year is no exception. We are all familiar with the Hyundai commercial created by Innocean where Jason Bateman, the star of Netflix original show “Ozarks” plays the operator of an elevator from hell, taking unfortunate passengers to all sorts of awful places like jury duty and a vegan dinner party before they saw the white light in the form of Hyundaiâs Shopper Assurance service. See the ad below, it was featured in Inside That Ad’s 2019 Super Bowl Central. Three days ago, I discovered from AgencySpy that…
Officially ITA’s First Movie Trailers
Back in 2015, I announced that I would like ITA to get into movie trailers but after that post, which you can read right here, I dropped the subject. I haven’t thought about it again until I received my new MoviePass card last week. Therefore, I want to try again. Without further ado, the first trailer I want to share with you is for Molly’s Game. The movie is about Molly Bloom, a business savvy, former athlete who set up and ran a high stake poker game for actors, business tycoons, and star athletes. I’m sharing the trailer first because I love poker and anything about the subject as well as the…

Leather and Cookies by Axe
Way back in the 1970s, a team at Ogilvy came up with the timeless phrase âTwo great tastes that taste great together.â That classic bit of copywriting described the irresistible combination of chocolate and peanut butter in Reeseâs cups. But it could apply to almost any two seemingly incongruous flavors, smells or other sensations, including ⌠leather and cookies? Since its 1984 debut, Axe has given the teenage boys of the world many classic bodywash and bodyspray scents, including Africa, Anti-Hangover and Denim. But this new product may be its oddest yet. The Unilever brand turned to German creative agency Dokyo to help promote the impossible combination of Leather +…
What Happened to agencycompile.com?
Agencycompile.com has changed significantly since the last time I tried to use it seriously back when I was living in Boston. I wanted to ask the community out there, why this change happened? What you guys think about it? Do you guys the site got better or worse since making the transformation? I remember it as being a simple website, with a plain look, feel and login that was very appealing to me. That appeal stemmed from knowing of a site where I can look up agencies based on size, specialty, billing ranges and most importantly to me location so that I can submit my resume to open positions. Now,…
