I am sure you’ve all seen it by now, the new advertising
reality show “The Pitch” on AMC. Yes, I’ve watched and will continue to do so
because I love anything to do with the ad business. But they really do
dumb-down the business and make it seem like everyone can do it.
I’ll elaborate, the only thing they are the two competing
agencies sitting around discussing ideas. While simply glancing over all the
other elements, preparation, and creation that actually goes into making an
advertising new business pitch. Finally, they don’t really focus any department
but they don’t discuss account management. Yes, I am a little bitter I guess.
Overall, they dumb-down the advertising business so that it
fits the reality TV genre. But I’ll watch. If you all enjoy the show, please let me know in the comments below.
Best,
