Whose idea is Michelob ultra courtside? I’ve seen articles crediting Wieden. I’ve seen interviews saying it’s actually McCann and Microsoft’s initiative. I’ve heard people at FCB saying it’s theirs. It’s an excellent idea. But arguing over credit is unbecoming to professional advertising agencies. What’s the real deal?

I’m wondering the same.

So people from FCB are saying FCB. And everybody else is saying Microsoft / McCann. And it’s been done before. It looks like the awards entries will be amusing for the judges when they see the same thing from two different agencies. If it’s been done before it’s not as impressive as I thought. FCB has a long history of bullshitting to get awards so I will assume the Microsoft people are telling the truth

Let’s make sure the judges of the award shows know this because the posturing for awards at the launch of this to the ad trades has been hard and heavy.

Technically it’s Microsoft. Michelob sponsored it. FCB named it.

“Unbecoming of professional agencies?” Are you just now realizing what agencies have become since 2010?

Started the agency game in 15. Well aware it's all trash now, cuz that much is obvious, but for those of us not paying attention before '15, what happened in '10, and what made it good before then? If ya don't mind my asking.

‘ how often do you have a chance to reinvent the watching experience? One of the most ambitious tech experiences ever seen! Bravo to the A.B. team and the relentless team at FCB New York.’—FCB Worldwide Creative Partner’s linked in post. No mention of Microsoft and certainly no mention this has been done before per your links above. But in trade magazine articles, this is credited to Microsoft Teams. And creativity ran a spot for Michelob courtside from Wieden + Kennedy featuring Jimmy Butler.

I'm currently working as an electrical designer in the MEP industry. I really don't like it and I'm working towards a career change which I'm actively applying for and getting certified etc. However, it's been a slow process and I'm currently underpaid where I am so would it be wise to make a lateral move to another MEP firm simply because they offer me more money while I still look for a different job separate from this field? Or just tough it out?

I am looking to leave my current position due to not having the opportunity to run campaigns and earn experience.
However, every interview I get asked about the campaigns that I have run.
This is starting to feel like a closed loop. Any ideas are appreciated.

I do create some personal campaigns and do social media content on LinkedIn for my personal profile. That is why I get a high number of interviews but I stumble at the starting line.

Hi! I'm currently interviewing (3/6 interviews so far) for for an appeals manager role for DME. The job entails not only to bill for dme (cms 1500) but also to follow up on any denials or appeals, amongst other administrative duties. My questions are is it typical to have 1 person doing both the billing and denials within a new vertical for all ins.? How difficult is billing for dme as I only have experience in gyn onc and lactation billing? What's a fair salary? I have 8+ yoe in rcm, no certs.
