I have a question, fellow bowlaz! I work in a small advertising agency in Oslo, Norway, and we struggle to get in contact with international ad media such as Adweek (Ad Freak) and Ad Age whenever we want to show off our creative work. Does anyone of you have a way in, or tips on how we can get in contact with media outlets like these? Cheers

What’s her background because… 😬😬😬
Sounds like she came from media and doesn’t understand her new role.
Tell her you don’t understand why she doesn’t understand.
It’s like telling someone you don’t know how to pronounce their name so you’ve decided to call them something that’s easier for you to say.
If she values you as much as she says, make it a dealbreaker.

Job description: "A Creative Producer is a recognized job in the entertainment, advertising, and media industries. They serve as a bridge between creative vision and practical execution, overseeing projects like films, commercials, and digital content from concept to post-production. They focus on the artistic direction—story, tone, and visual style—while managing the team."
Job description: "An Activation Manager (or Brand Activation Manager) is a mid-to-senior level job, primarily within marketing, advertising, or brand management industries. They are responsible for designing, executing, and managing campaigns that bring a brand to life, such as pop-up events, product launches, or experiential marketing."
Both jobs are valuable to the workflow and execution of marketing campaigns. The job title doesn't lessen your role. Just make sure you're doing the work required and getting paid what you deserve for it.
Beyond just understanding the internal roles and responsibilities, it’s also worth considering the external implications. Titles signal scope and experience to clients, partners, and future employers. Even if Activations Manager might describe certain responsibilities internally, titles carry different weight in the industry. If I introduced someone to a client as our Activations Manager, they might reasonably ask, “Wait, where’s the Creative Producer on this?” So it’s also about how the role reads externally.
