“I don’t play Fantasy Football, but if there was an advertising equivalent you can bet you’d find Sam on my team. She’s dynamite – whether you’re working with her as a client or as part of your agency. Yes, she’s super smart and incredibly funny, is great at managing people and delivers work on time and budget, but her most impressive trait is her commitment to keeping creative standards high. Dizzyingly, nose-bleed high. She’s the first to look at creative work and ask, “Is that good enough?” to either the creative, or the client, if work is not up to par. The question you should be asking yourself now isn’t, “Do I want to employee Sam?” but, “Am I good enough to deserve her?””
