Charlotte is a senior content specialist at Hilton Grand Vacations in Orlando. From her This Is Me page: “I’m an Orlando-based content specialist and brand strategist with some PR know-how in my back pocket. Storytelling has been my jam since I was a kid. Telling the stories of industry leaders and small businesses is my bread and butter.” MC couldn’t sum it up better than that.

It’s rare that MC posts a project rather than a portfolio. But every once in a while, something comes along that’s so well-written it just needs to go up. Still trying to track down the W+K copywriter who penned this one, will add the credit when she/he is found.
Back in the day, Janet Champ’s poetry for Nike Women (1988-93) is what inspired MC to get into copywriting in the first place. Thirty years later, it’s so cool to see W+K continuing to put writing out there, for the same brand, that really means something. Still setting the bar.

Paul is a freelance copywriter/CD in Denver (last featured on MC way back on 02.08.2012). He’s got a killer portfolio site with all kinds of cool work including lots of entertainment projects from his time at Starz, but it was his stock photo headline site, Stoccopy, that was forwarded to MC from designer/CD at Noise13, Peter Judd (big ups, Peter!). Paul’s description at the top of the site: “Crappy stock headlines for crappy stock photos. You’re welcome.” So bad. So good. Links to both sites below.

DJ O’Neil, good friend to MC and master of ceremonies at Hub in San Francisco, is on the hunt for some peeps. From DJ:
ACD/Creative Director
We’re looking for an accomplished ACD/CD that is comfortable working both as an art director and a designer; if we could only choose one of those two skill sets for this position, it would definitely be on the design side. We need a person that can lead a client through a complete visual re-brand—walking them through the entire process of identity, visual look and feel and go to market creative for a fully integrated brand. We are looking for a very talented person here; we continually attract clients that want truly great work, and we need someone with the ability to deliver on that.
Account Director
We’re a small place, with no gigantic clients. Which means all of the clients we work with are the actual decision makers. As such, we’re looking for an account director that can work with these decision makers and really run pieces of business—from writing initial SOW’s, to writing marketing plans, to managing the client and steering them toward great strategy and great creative, to managing the account team that keeps the budgets and timelines on track, to growing the business, and everything in between. We’re not looking for a “yes” man or woman—this person will be a true client partner, and that means pushing back (for the client’s own benefit) when necessary—we believe this is how great client relationships are built. Ideally, this person thinks more like a CMO than and ad guy/gal.
