For NZ to have two of the top 6 agencies in THE WORLD is seriously impressive, we are punching way above our weight on the global scene.
Maybe 2014 can be the year we can cut out the pathetic bitching and backstabbing on sites like these and actually support and congratulate each other on our success’s. When a Kiwi agency makes the world take note it is good for everyone is New Zealand advertising – for us to have two world beaters is seriously impressive.
Congratulations to everyone at Colenso and Draft – you’ve both done some seriously impressive work last year. You’ve raised the bar for the rest of us and I for one am looking forward to rising to that challenge in 2014!
