Episode #382 of Six Pixels of Separation – The Twist Image Podcast is now live and ready for you to listen to.
One of my business partners at Twist Image is an advertising industry veteran. He helped build one of the most well-regarded agencies in Canada for well over a decade. When we first met (over a decade ago), he half-joked that it’s surprising how many highly-intelligent individuals would like to be a part of such a miserable industry.

It was a crazy time when brands were looking for all kinds of edge over their competitors and these newly-formed ad agencies were just making stuff up as they went along. It was crazy times. George Parker was lucky enough to have entered the industry back then. He lives to tell the tales. For over thirty years, he worked in the creative department for agencies all over the work.

Currently, he is still an advertising consultant, blogs regularly at AdScam (which is hilarious and brilliant) and he writes books (his most-recent being, Confessions Of A Mad Man).
