Any experiential strategists or producers in here? Moved to NYC in pursuit of landing a job in experiential in 2019, obviously couldn't have timed it worse lol. Landed a social PM gig late last year but it really isn't doing it for me. Looking to see where you learn/learned experiential strat or makes you a good experiential producer. I know experiential is a ways off to return to pre-COVID levels but I'd like to start learning now! Thanks :)

Don't put it off thinking experiential is "a ways off", it's not what it used to look like and that's for the best. It was never just one thing and now it needs to be many new and different looking things. The current never stops flowing, so jump in.

I am happy to connect you with some amazing experiential agencies that have done some pivoting during this time period...and they may have opportunities. PM me if you can...is that an option on this app?

I started dating this guy some months before covid struck.. he was literally crazy about me. He even stayed in Hyderabad for months just so that we could meet once before he went on to stay with his family. After that it had been a real roller coaster. He pampered me a lot before and now he hardly talks. We both have switched to different companies (earlier were in the same) and now he works 6 days a week. Sleeps or Vists his relatives or works on Sundays. Sometimes I feel he no longer loves me.
