CRAYFORD AND McGREEVY JOIN OGILVY



Following a 10-year stint at Lowe Auckland, senior creative team Daniel Crayford (top left) and Paul McGreevy (below left) have been lured to Ogilvy.
“As part of our commitment to develop and nurture world class creative product, I’m privileged to announce that Daniel and Paul are joining us in this role,” said ECD Jeremy Taine.

Good luck lads - I'll give you 6 months when there'll either be another clear out of the creative department, Ogilvy will have lost yet more accounts, or Roy and Jeremy move on to pastures new, which will probably be quite soon I reckon.

9.32 - Thanks for sharing your thoughts. You've given me the warm fuzzies. I keep complaining in unpublished posts that this blog isn't what it used to be - Your love and positivity have now shown me why. Where do you work as a matter of interest?

Hey 8:48, where do you think 9:32 works? At Ogilvy of course you idiot. No one there has nay motivation at all. Call it the Partington effect. Yep, we're all taking guesses for how much longer Roy and Jeremy last with this 'retirement plan' off theirs, and how many clients stay on.

Is Lowe profitable yet? Only two months, three weeks to go.

Hey 3:17, we all know what work Ogilvy has done, now why don't you share some of yours with us?
I'm sure you're doing wonderful things with those BNZ mailouts...

9:31, Lowe is making good coin now. Unlike Ogilvy, according to word on the street. But the O-girls will enjoy the arrival of McGroovy.

Why on earth are you all so dreadful and bitter. I work at Ogilvy and am totally over this Ogilvy-phobia! May it stop and you all just grow up.

I think your insolent and unnecessary lambasting of Greg is particularly out of place now given the fantastic Ogilvy results last night.

I thought the Rabobank stuff was done by MTC, pre-Ogilvy. Bet that one will be top of Roy and Jeremy's hit list when they walk.

'i hope ogilvy lose all its clients...'
So everyone loses their job? What a sad, bitter little prick you are. I work at Ogilvy and there are a lot of passionate, talented people working at making our clients more successful. That's what we're supposed to do in this business. Were you sacked by any chance?

There are also lots of lazy, incompetent idiots at Ogilvy. And arrogant, miserable pricks. Which is why it has the highest staff turnover of any agency.

Hands up if you've got loads of Ogilvy staff CV's on your desk right now.
