Happening. Obviously using us for our brilliant ideas only to have someone else execute. Par for the course but would like to think I wouldn’t do that as a client

I struggle with how you could do this as a client and wonder if it’s because they rationalize it as part of an unfair system where they have to look out for self interests. It makes me sad that there’s so much distrust in the industry that this kind of thing happens regularly

You’ve kind of described the entire triple bidding broadcast from a production vendor’s point of view. “Thanks for your elaborate director’s treatment and bid. We simply ‘felt more comfortable’ with another bidder. And it’s a total coincidence when many of the original ideas in your treatment show up in the finished piece. Better luck next time."

@President - yeah that is a bitch. I’m a believer in karma though. If you aren’t using the people, then don’t use their work. If you do, well I’d like to believe it will be much shittier than coming from those with the original vision

Coming from the vendor side, we are always asked to come up with “cool, never been done ideas” only to have them select another vendor and execute those same ideas we proposed. It gets very old, and tiring to say the least!

I’m trying to fix up my resume to apply to other companies. It’s my first resume fix since college so I’m trying to see what to include/ take out.
1) Do I keep my internships? My leadership experiences in college?
2) How do I organize my engagement experiences - All combined bullets or separated by client?
3) How about my internal efforts? (I did 3 internal projects within the firm)
4) Education on top or bottom?

If anyone has a good resume example, please do share!

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
