Dad
My father was an advertising agency account executive. He loved his work. And was quite good at it.
His career spanned from the late 1920s to the mid 1960s. His clients covered a broad spectrum. Most of his work was on major consumer brands. But he also handled some highly technical b-to-b clients as well.
Many people have an art of creative writing and these people can surely join an advertising agency. An ad agency is a perfect place of art that has so many artists working for it in some or the other way. To come across the meaning of professionalism a person must become a part of an ad agency. The working of an advertising agency cannot be handled by every person because these agencies stick to deadlines in order to meet the requirements of the clients. No work goes pending by an ad agency for tomorrow rather everything is done today itself. Professionals working here struggle with time to meet their dead lines.
An advertising agency functions like a mediator that helps to connect the marketer/advertiser with the target audience. An advertiser tells his/her requirements to an ad agency and to meet the requirements every department of the agency works in a special way. Internal communication is maintained between every department of the ad agency to come up with the best results. Creative department of the agency focuses at the creativity to attract large audience for the advertiser. Powerful headlines, body copy, slogan etc are made by the creative department to form the back bone an effective advertisement.
