Genuflect at Will

A thousand thanks to the Fallon Planning Blog for pointing me to this absolutely amazing find: “The Giants of Advertising” series from the American Educational Foundation.

There you will find rare video interviews with the likes of Leo Burnett, David Ogilvy, Bill Bernbach, George Lois and many more.

Prepare to have bruises on your knees from worshiping at the altar of advertising– but this time, it will be for all the right reasons.

Their Agency Motto: “Don’t Fuck Up.”

Scamp, over at his self-titled blog, gives us this little tidbit:

J****, an account director at our agency, was in a meeting last week when the client nipped out and called our agency’s chairman to say: “I want this guy off my business. Today.”

The chairman sent his PA into that meeting and pulled the account director out, and then fired him.

Within 10 minutes of the client’s call, J**** had left the building.

Ouch.
