Client Love

#TeamLoveInspiresClientLove

“Dan is a joy to work with. He leads and inspires a team of staff and freelance writers to continually outperform previous efforts, and yet, no one on the team works harder than Dan to ensure his clients get the best possible results for their brand.”

 

…He’s a straight shooter, and while he doesn’t shy away from demanding better work for his clients from his account and creative teams, he’s equally appreciative when they deliver.” 

—VP ACD who I had the pleasure of working with for three years at Ogilvy
