A few months ago I attempted to put my experience of working in the advertising industry into words. I wanted to start from the beginning, where it all began in New York September 2007. However it’s been months since I wrote and it’s because it’s...
Blink. Blink. Blink. Voicemail light. Dear Kerry: Hello Kerry, Hi Kerry, Unanswered E-mails. Four summers ago I accepted my first media planner position. My Uncle Sean, a sales representative for People Magazine, took me aside and laid down the law. As a media planner it...
