In the cynical and crazy world of PR, advertising, marketing and social media, there are many areas and niches we work within.
These include the areas of municipal, non-profit, corporate, solo and – last but not least – agency. The agency person is a very auspicious, motivated individual who thrives on the strategic plan, but equally loves the unknown. I liken this person to a creature of the wild, hunting and foraging for its prey, awaiting the final strike.
Okay, that’s a bit much, but here are my top 5 ways you know you work at an agency (in no particular order):
-
You live life one billable hour at a time
-
You can sit back and roll around in your chair while completing a scenic tour of each department (or at least a few)
-
You’re surrounded by a wall of industry awards when you walk in the office lobby
-
You start accidentally using words like “deliverables” and “client expectations” with your friends and family!
-
You tend to have a bunch of games strewn around the office like dart boards, bean bags, chess and the infamous pinball machine!
