Do it now while you have the energy and flexibility. It will teach you a LOT and set you up for future roles as you grow in your career.
You’ll get awesome exposure to the senior leadership so it’s a chance to shine. Make sure there’s a clear plan or next steps if new biz isn’t where you really want to be. Be vocal about the opportunity to actually work on the pitches not just “help” with them.
Great way to build relationships with various teams in the agency and get exposure to senior leadership that most entry level people wouldn’t. Use it to network internally and then move into the role you want!
On the other side though... make sure you don’t just think ‘new business’, think about how ads actuallly work etc. Be a practitioner .
It helps
I think when you are young and not tied down is the best time to take such a risk.
Best case you rise with the company, invest, and profit.
Worst case you bounce after a year and go on to the next thing with more experience.
Def do it. Great experience & will teach you a lot more than being a practitioner in a short period of time. Plus it’ll teach you about running a business & presenting, which most won’t learn until later in their careers.
