E By Gum it's an eBook

It's been a while, hasn't it? Hello again. Since last we spoke we've been knee-deep in some tasty projects with our lovely clients, which is why we haven't got around to writing on here. If you miss a regular dose of Sell! Sell! nonsense, you can always follow us on the Twitter,
at https://twitter.com/wearesellsell and Instagram,

Anyway, at long last we are chuffed to announce the launch of our book, How To Make Better Advertising And Advertising Better, as an ebook.

“The ad industry is in an unprecedented state of confusion. While the assertions and pomposity grow majestically, the advertising itself diminishes rapidly. Sadly there is no button we can push that will erase all the arrogance and self-delusion. Fortunately we have this book. It might be just the reset button we all need.” Bob Hoffman
Something is rotten in the state of advertising. CEOs and marketers tell us that working with agencies is painful and laborious. Agency people tell us they feel undervalued, overworked and stifled by poor processes. And the poor old punter is left faced with advertising that is at best forgettable, and at worst insulting to the intelligence. Surely there’s a better way?
“This book is full of common sense. Which is rare, so it’s actually full of uncommon sense.”Dave Trott 
We were having a cup of tea and a chat one morning when we had the idea for this book. In our opinion, the quality and effectiveness of advertising in general is not good enough. We think the way businesses work with agencies and the way that agencies organise themselves and develop advertising needs to be improved. It’s time the advertising industry had a much-needed kick up the proverbial. So we thought it would be helpful to collect the ideas and approaches that have helped us to make better advertising for our clients over the last ten years. Whether you’re a business owner, chief executive, marketer or brand director who works with ad agencies, or an agency chief, ad exec or creative, we hope you find this book thought-provoking and challenging. Most of all, we hope it helps you make better advertising. Put the kettle on...
