I know, I know … the pic above does sound awfully like the announcement of a terrible TV show. Think Jerry Springer meets Fear Factor.
But no … even FOX News aren’t stupid enough to green light that.
What it is my attempt to invite any planner or senior planner in NZ to have a coffee. With me.
Now I appreciate that just a few days ago, I wrote a post about ‘prioritizing my priorities’ and so this may sound contradictory – but as I wrote at the time – it’s not a case of me not wanting to talk to people – in fact that is very important to me – it’s just that I am going to arrange it within certain times so I can ensure my family aren’t the ones who always end up being asked to make way. [Which was always my issue, not theirs or anyone who wanted to chat]
Now I get it … even with that condition, sticking your head in a crocs mouth probably sounds more tempting, but I hope there’s someone out there who is up for it.
We can talk about your career, your fears or your favourite flavor of jelly for all I care … I just want to meet more of the people in my proverbial backyard.
Now I must admit, I announced this on Linkedin a few weeks ago and was pretty overwhelmed with the response.
However, in a classic twist, it’s not the creatives who ‘didn’t read the brief’, it was the planners because 95% of those who responded were not based in the NZ.
So while I spoke to a couple of them over the past few weeks, I might do a mass ‘virtual coffee’ zoom for anyone interested in meeting up – maybe two, to help the timezone nightmare that is NZ – which is why whether you’re in NZ or outside of it, if you fancy a Coffee with Campbell™ … start by clicking here and putting your name down by simply noting your location.
[I won’t be selling your data to buy the coffee, promise]
