is it the expectation that you will be working every weekend while you are pitching at your agency?

It’s different for every pitch and every agency, but I would recommend not making plans you can’t break as the pitch date gets closer.

Depends on the agency/size of pitch. We’ve had fast pitches and have gone in with full work where teams have worked multiple weekends (typically strategy and creative). Our new biz department doesn’t actually come up with ideas/work for the pitch. They’re more about bringing in pitches that are the right fit and answering initial RFI.

We usually do one weekend on a pitch. Sometimes more. The new biz team does more than the rest of us.

Yes. There’s a lot of variables from agency to agency. Limited writers would make it more crucial for you to be there.

In your opinion which is the best target fund to choose in IRA Roth?

Question for funds folks, since no one is around to answer any questions and I can't seem to find this answer anywhere. Why can't a placement agent combine or integrate the offering of interests in the sponsor's fund with the contemporaneous offering of interests in another fund? Is it based on reputational risk or from a sales perspective in case someone rejects both funds, any other issues? Thanks!

Straight up plagiarism imo. Literally search "adoptable dog on beer can" and the Motorworks stuff comes up, so not googling the idea beforehand is not an excuse.
