After months in the planning I finally made it to New York and a meeting with Myles Kellam the CEO of Conversation. It was a dream of mine ever since watching Melrose Place (yes i admit it i am a melrose fan), to be involved, some way with a pumping New York advertising agency. Sometimes dreams do come true.
Its funny though, and maybe it was the expectations built up through Melrose place, but i did not strike me as any different to what POMO was when we had the Fortitude Valley office. Don't get me wrong, it was an awesome experience, but i suppose, those images which were built up in my head of advertising agencies in America being all glitz and glamor, where just that, images. It's like when you hear of a must see movie which has reviews to die for in the film industry and your friends are all talking about it. Once you finally get to see it, there always seems to be something missing, what was it that made all these other people say great things, the spark has disappeared for you. but you know that you just had to do it!
