How to Have Fun Doing Work That Matters
Great Scott! Every brand looks the same and every creative professional feels burnt out. Marty, we’ve got to go back… back to a joyful and sustainable approach to our work. So, how do we build meaningful brands that make the lives of customers, clients, and ourselves better? By practicing these five fundamentals:
- Uncover what makes the brand truly unique.
- Go beyond demographics and go deep with empathy.
- Embrace your expertise and ignorance.
- Sell the work, not your soul.
- Master the art of time travel.
Attendees will leave this talk with actionable tips to improve their creative fulfillment, output, and career.
This workshop is open to anyone, especially juniors who want to build a sustainable creative career and seniors who need to reinvigorate their passion for their job.
