If they like it, they should support it :
Get the Client to Spend Against the Great WorkOnce you have the great ad or campaign, get the client to spend money on it. This is how an ad agency makes money and it also is a self fulfilling cycle. The client will sell more product producing more money with which to support the advertising.
Attract good people :

Don't forget to have some fun Have Fun:The advertising business is hard work and offers plenty of stress. But you need to be able to have a laugh or two to keep your balance and to project a sense of fun to your colleagues. After all, it's not rocket science
