It actually feels great to go to the CMAs with clients and win them some golds and see how much they love it.

Client relationships can do more for your career than winning a Clio, for example.

That report card is the most insidiously genius thing Strategy has created.

I think of them as Effies that don’t care about the quality of the creative or how stringent the case is. Which is a pretty low bar, given this years Effie’s.

they rank pretty low, clients like them more than a lot of others though

They're an award for clients.
Most creatives don't really rank them or care about them.

But, an award win is a win. So I'd rather win one than not.
