Mischief & Rethink

like

DDB Chicago has done great in that space for Miller Light. The Cantenna, The Shoezie, and a few others.

David Miami also comes to mind, but it's more award show type bait work.

PR agencies with a creative department usually specialize in stunts as well.

@AD1 and CW3,

My bad. I was talking about quite a few years ago when they were doing a lot of cool, stunty activations for Miller/Wrigley. Shouldn’t have been quite as sweeping of a generalization.

Russia has recently been doing great work to stay in the press.

DDB Chicago, Mischief and Rethink for sure.

Agree that David used to be it, but theyre kinda down these days. And GUT was never really a thing, at least not yet.

That’s Rethink’s bread and butter. And ketchup.

Does anyone run a business in addition to their firm? I’m a solo and I’m doing pretty well with about 60-70 billable hours a month. Though that leaves a lot of downtime. Curious if anyone has any second businesses that require about 20 hours a week. Not looking for passive income or franchise ideas though.
