If they at least say art vs copy, that’s fine. But when it’s creative vs copy I start to feel that vein on my forehead about to burst 🤦‍♂️

I've always been bothered by art vs copy too because writing is a form of art / is artistic. Not even trying to kiss copy ass rn, just bothered me when talking to clients and them misunderstanding writing copy was a quick thing but somehow accepting visual design takes longer when fighting over timing with them. I personally feel current terminology is BS, but not sure what I'd suggest instead.

I constantly corrected my team when they said that! “There aren’t any changes to the art, just to the copy”. I’m sorry people say that to you, it’s rude😡

I corrected them to say art vs. copy instead of saying creative vs. copy because the copy is part of the creative!

Hi all, I was curious about companies that have their own in-house advertising. I’m in digital media, specifically, SEM and potentially looking to leave the agency side. Primarily due to low pay, and management issues. Given this, any company recs that have a solid foundation with digital media? Any advice from people who’ve been on both the agency and branded side?

Can someone explain how billable hours work?

I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
