First of all congrats to my dear Freddie who has just joined BBH as one of the big wigs in planning.
It’s brilliant news – and couldn’t be a better match if I married Megan Fox and Angelina.
Of course the real reason he took up their offer is so he can be near our beloved killer dwarf, Emah, again – but what pleases me more is that even though Freddie is an uber-talent, the lovely folk at BBH were able to see past the fact he either wears his pants way too high or frequents office parties like he’s Elton John circa 1977.
Anyway, it’s top news and it makes me stupidly happy – both for Freddie and my mates at the black sheep.
Talking of BBH …
The global planner survey is in and they have been labelled as the agency with the best planning department … closely followed by Crispin, WK, Goodby and Fallon.
I suppose the 2 biggest surprises are that TBWA, Saatchi, DDB and McCann are nowhere to be seen [which is a bit unfair given I know people in all those places who are bloody brilliant] AND that enough planners felt Sunshine was a decent enough planning bunch that the author of the report felt it worthy of giving it a mention.
This makes me very happy … not just because I have bragging rights over my lovely [and stupidly brilliant] boys & girls at cynic but because for a company just under a year old, it’s quite nice to be noticed.
So to whoever said such nice things [excluding my Mum] I thank you and we’ll see what we can do to live up to the praise, because quite frankly, we haven’t done shit yet.
But we will. Oh yes, we will. 🙂
