A lot of people saying a lot of different things about your campaigns. If 3 or more people say something similar about a piece of work they’re onto something.

like

Usually timed and pick 1-3 campaigns depending on how far how you go into depth.

A lot of feedback. Like JC1 said, if you talk to five people and all five mention changing something in the work, you might want to listen to the feedback. But if you talk to five people and only one person mentions something, you use your best judgement.

Also, thick skin. Getting feedback is tough. Just take the advice, dissect it, and go from there. They're take on your work isn't to hurt you but to help you improve.

Thank you! So what do you wear? do you take a printed version of your book? Business cards?

Computer or iPad/tablet. Black Sabbath t shirt. You don’t have to get cards printed. Just get emails of people you vibe with.

Iron Maiden t-shirt works just as well too.

Be ready to meet people. These are great opportunities to network with the CDs and whoever is there reviewing books, but also with your peers.

You’re good, it’s super casual

Would love to hear thoughts on best approach of you are a senior associate at V10 firm. Do you just become counsel until they tell you that partnership is not in the cards or do you try to hop to the first partnership (equity, or at least NEP with clear progression to equity if you bring in some business) opportunity at a say V50 firm. I’m not home grown at my current firm, but do have a small book currently.
