Do any Agency Producers feel stuck? We are called upon to find the impossible and make it happen on time and on budget. Find the perfect vendor/collaborator to work with. Be strategic, creative and logical all the same time. But recently as things are changing I just wonder if that role will go away or morph into something else. Anyone else feeling something similar? I feel stuck because the skills don’t seem transferable.
