SubscribePretty Standard, Really
Recent, and sadly typical, client feedback from some of my writing. Remember what I said about the common tendency to think everybody (besides you, of course) is dumb?
*****
From: [Insert Account Person Name Here]
To: Colin, [Art Director], [Creative Director], [Traffic Manager]
Subject: [Project Name]
[Insert name of marketing director here] has not sent the ads to the marketing committee and won’t until we get her revised creative. There are 3 ads that are fine and the other 3 still need some work.
[client] understands the humor and the thought behind these ads, but stresses the importance of being positive. They don’t think people would come to an event after seeing an ad [like this]. [Client] acknowledges what we’re trying to do with the concept, but still doesn’t think people will get it.
Let me know when you can have revisions ready.
Isn’t that just pathetic? You see, there are stupid people outside Indiana, too. It’s rampant, I tell you.
Love and hugs
