It’s Friday at 4:35pm. You’re working tirelessly for your client’s big Monday morning presentation, wrangling documents and data into a PowerPoint that MUST win the day.
You’re racking your brain – is this draft too text-heavy or does there need to be more meat on the bone? How many slides should it be? Will the presentation hold attention or will the smart phones pop out five minutes in?
By the time the clock strikes 5:00 pm it sinks in that your weekend will be buried in work, and you begin to cancel plans…
What if there was a super hero you could call?
Perhaps like your agency, they would be a specialized, fractional team focused on solving a specific problem.
This is the type of situation in which today’s guest and his company thrives.
