Ask a Better Question

Derek Oyen, Jesse DiFranco

Booking Overview

An advertising-agency interview show focused on how campaigns are developed, accounts are managed, and agency professionals build their careers, with guests typically drawn from advertising and marketing practitioners. PR agencies could credibly pitch agency leaders, strategists, creatives, public relations professionals, and digital specialists with practical campaign experience; booking should be relatively accessible, though the show’s established pattern suggests a preference for Marcus Thomas colleagues and closely connected peers.
