I rented the first season from work and.... finished the entire 13 episodes in one weekend.
I was hooked. I knew exactly what they were talking about and I knew the thrill they were feeling when creating something spectacular.
Anyways. I view my office totally differently- well not really. I don't expect to be chased around and forced to show my underwear color or have sex with anyone here. But still, where there were people in the office before, now there are characters.
Also my "mentor" aka Senior Copywriter here at MeringCarson has shared some gems with me that I would like to note.
"it's better to continue to think in campaigns. always do that"
" this gem won't really help you right now, but it's good advice. I always keep a running list of sayings.
If I hear a popular saying or truism, I write it down. Because they ALWAYS make great formulas for taglines or campaign themelines.
so, if someone says to you 'To each his own' or whatever. write it down."
My notebook is going everywhere with me now! Before you know it I will be a Donald Draper of my very own. Minus the sleeping around and smoking.
