I'm chief instigator, janitor, secretary and mailroom person for brown and browner advertising.
Most advertising recruiting ads: People who don't know what they're doing asking people who do know what they're doing to do more than any one person should reasonably be asked to do.
Advertising should have people all up in their feelings. And dear lord, there are more feelings/emotions than just happy or sad. Look up how many there are. There's a gamut that advertising can be built upon. Yet most advertising uses the same 3 or 4.

I have the most brilliant friends! 29 years ago, Darion McCloud had an idea to bring University of South Carolina football players together with children to celebrate reading, and called it Pigskins Poets. This year over 400 were in attendance. 29 Years!

I made the mistake of writing this post on Linkedin first, and that made it too long to cut up into smaller bits for here. I am doing social media wrong. linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…
