OK, I admit it. I am totally obsessed with AMC's recent hit Mad Men, a drama series about the advertising industry on Madison Avenue in the early 1960s.
Mad Men focuses on the intra-offices politics of a fictitious independent advertising agency, and is loaded with excessive smoking and drinking, blatant sexism against the female office workers, and a stunning wardrobe of handmade suits and dresses that will make even the Birkenstock-wearers among us swoon.
And oh yeah, sometimes they pitch ad concepts to clients, too.
What's really interesting to me is that Mad Men instigates some real discussions on agency/client relationships, and I foresee college professors using this show as a discussion starter in their classes in no time.
Curious about our experience and how we have created market leadership for our clients?
We’re not an advertising agency or a PR firm. We’re just like your in house marketing department.
