Really happy to be where I am 🤗✨ Only thing I (think I) would rather do is work on Nike at WK Portland. But I probably wouldn't have the same opportunities so early into my career that I've had at 72. So again, happy to be here! ☀️

I'm a fan of Ogilvy, RGA, and any smaller shop that can focus on quality deliverables. Larger shops tend to churn out 💩

@72andsunny seriously? You don't like 72?

@ACD - I lived there for 20 and it's only good if you don't like big cities. Ad Center is awesome tho, errr whatever they call it niw

Honestly curious what the outside perception is of 72? My next move is outside of advertising.

@72andsunny I like Fallon a lot. So I am not unhappy either. Was just curious to hear people's perceptions. Thank you for the boost, tho. Always appreciated. Haha

Fallon peaked at BMW films right?

@senior producer that and maybe some of the old Fallon London work is probably the best thing fallons done, yes.

Guys, check out VML, we're not too shabby 🙃🙂

Partners or whomever can help me understand about billing and hours. To keep things simple, let’s say you only have one staff to work 1,700 billable hours a year on a $60k salary and you have only one job that and the rate charged to the client is $300/hour and an projected hours budget of 1,700 hours. So ideally you would have revenue of $510k. If the staff takes less time partners make less money and if they take more time partners make more money while the staff keeps the same salary?

Any leads for good contract doc review attorneys/companies? Working on a complex internal investigation that requires analysis far beyond simple responsiveness coding and getting quotes that outsource to India for a fraction of the cost of reviewing in house is actually not what I’m looking for. Saving money is a consideration but primary driver is dedicated/consistent time commitment. Team is stretched too thin to make it through the volume.
