90% of agencies are following trends and not setting them. They’re not getting reach or client retention this way, and knowing this helps me sleep better at night.

Lower your age range on tinder. Get out in the field and experience it in person.

Anyone know much about the start up scene in E Africa? I hear a lot of general talk about how it’s ‘booming’ but can’t find much information online.

I'm reading this book on boundaries. In the work section it says I should tell my boss that I can't work after 5 PM. Knowing that advertising work commonly goes past 5 PM...would my job be in danger if I said that?
There's not really a rule book that says I must work until the work is done even though it's an unsaid expectation. Thoughts?
