If You Can’t Be Brilliant, At Least

You Can't Save Souls In An Empty Church.

I Never Assign A Product To A Writer Unless I Know That He Is Personally Interested In It. Every Time I Have Written A Bad Campaign, It Has Been Because The Product Did Not Interest Me.

Every Ad Is An Investment In The Long-term Image Of A Brand.

I Was Doing A Campaign Once For A Manufacturer, And I Couldn't Think Of An Ideas, And I Was Kind Of Desperate About It. The Night Before I Had To Show Something To My Client I Had A Dream, An Interesting Dream. I Woke Up And For Once In My Life I Wrote It Down And Went Back To Sleep Next Morning I Went To The Office And Had That Dream Out Into A Tv Commercial Which Is Still Running Thirty Years After And Which Has Made That Particular Product The Leader In Its Field.

Making The Logo Twice The Size Is Often A Good Thing To Do, Because Most Advertisements Are Deficient In Brand Identification. Showing The Clients' Faces Is Also A Better Stratagem Than It May Sound, Because The Public Is More Interested In Personalities Than In Corporations. Some Clients Can Be Projected As Human Symbols Of Their Own Products.
