How long do you wait before you post pitch work on your site? Does it matter if the agency won the business? I mean, I know we are not supposed to post it. Officially.

I’ve never posted pitch work before. IMO you’re better off keeping those ideas in your back pocket and recycling in the future for another client.

You wait until it’s been formally announced and the campaign is out in the world. Or if it’s never going to see the light of day, do it on a locked down page with a password. Depending on your contract the agency likely owns the work and can send you a cease and desist if they don’t want it out.

I’ve never posted pitch work, it’s pretty discouraged, even if you do win the work. Plus pitches are like a whole art and they really do recycle some of the concepts.

I wouldn’t think twice if someone showed me pitch work in their book. And sometimes it’s been for biz I pitched too and I’m just like, “cool, was this your concept?”. The only risk is if I pitched it and am close to the strategy (or what my agency taught me was the strategy) and judge your work more harshly bc of that. My motto is ‘Put your best work in your book’. That’s it. Whether it’s a comp, a pitch, whatever. Password protect it. Use what you’ve done to sell yourself—that’s what it’s all about, right?

There's a pitch I worked on that I didn't say the client name but said the industry which worked for me. It's nice to have it up, I get compliments on the idea regularly and some freelance requests every so often

I’ve made it 5+ years in a NY M&A practice and have consistent exceeding expectations reviews. I’ve had a few mental breakdowns because of work during this time, but thankfully made it through. I’ve been in a near constant depressive/anxious state for family reasons for the last year and half, and am soon having my first kid. I’m scared shitless that I’ll spiral out of control both at work and at home if something doesn’t change soon. Any suggestions on how to keep this job and keep it together?

I have not been diagnosed with ADHD. I definitely fit some of the characteristics that go unnoticed in females.

It seems rude when she says it, and she follows it up with “I say that because I love you” which i feel is so unprofessional all around. Anyone have guidance on how to handle this?
