This weeks podcast as follow up to a recent article by Danny Cullen Associate Creative Director at The Public House.

The piece had the slightly counterintuitive title Disappoint Your Clients. On todays podcast, Danny talks about the merits of selectively disappointing your clients particularly when it come to points of difference around creativity and where they do arise how those problems are best addressed and discussed earlier in the production process.

Danny also gave us some background on a couple of recent campaigns for Irish Defences Forces and 48 mobile.
